How can I set minimum Purchase Amounts?

Some suppliers choose to make use of a minimum purchase amount, for environmental or logistical reasons. It is possible to register this amount in Apicbase.

This functionality will not block orders below the minimum order amount which you've set, the software will only warn you that you haven't reached the minimum purchase amount.

  • Under the "Procurement" module, click "Suppliers"
