Order Quantity

The total number of items to be produced for a manufacturing order.  This number is expressed in the part's stockkeeping unit or measure.  

Also, the quantity required for transfer, expressed in the stockkeeping unit of measure.  If this number is set to zero, the line is closed automatically.  If the line is attached to a requisition line (through F16), the order quantity is automatically set to the sum of the selected requisition quantities.  This number may be increased, but cannot be set less than the total attached requisition quantity or the line quantity shipped to date.
