Description:

An agreed-to minimum quantity of the trade item that the Retailer can order.

Example:

The Widget Co. has set “10 cases” as the minimum order allowable (each case contains 24 widgets); therefore, the case must be flagged as an order unit and the attribute value is 10. If Widget Co. allows customers to order eaches, the “each” trade item must be flagged as an order unit and would have an orderQuantityMinimum of 240 (24 in a case times 10).

Useful Tips:

  • This field must be populated for all the items flagged as Orderable Units.

  • This field is supported by the National Product Catalogue as a Trading Partner Dependent (TPD) attribute. For more information on TPD attributes, please contact your NPC Customer Support Team.
