Use Reorder Multiple on Purchase Order and Sales Order

Scenario

Currently, the Reorder Multiple feature only works on the Order Items page.

Solution

Should the user wish to enforce order multiples in the Purchase Order and Sales Order, you may perform the following alternate solutions:

A. For Purchase Order, assume the following:
    Inventory Item = Item A
    Desired Order Multiple = 5

    The user may create an Item Group with Item A as its Component and set the Component Quantity to 5.

    Note: The Quantity for the Component is still editable on the transaction level.

B. For Sales Order, assume the following:
    Inventory Item = Item B
    Desired Order Multiple = 6

    The user may create a Kit/Package item with Item B as its Component and set the Component Quantity to 6.

    Note:  Kit sales post revenue for the kit only, it does not post revenue for Item B. Therefore, sales revenue appears on inventory reports for the kit, not the components.
