Due to the matter of cost and revenue balance, it is vital that site owners know how to set order quantity restriction when selling products. As for some particular product types, you cannot sell a small quantity because of high shipping and packaging cost, or you may need to restrain the number of products added to the cart because of priority for particular customer groups. This article will provide you with an easy tutorial to set min/max order quantity in Magento 2.
Please follow these following simple steps to finish the setting up of minimum and maximum order quantity in admin.
1. Navigate to Admin Sidebar > Stores > Configuration.
2. In Configuration, go to Catalog > Inventory > Product Stock Options.
3. In Product Stock Options, find 2 sections: Maximum Qty Allowed in Shopping Cart and Minimum Qty Allowed in Shopping Cart.
4. In Maximum Qty Allowed in Shopping Cart, enter a number to determine the maximum quantity for products added to cart.
5. In Minimum Qty Allowed in Shopping Cart, pick customer group and assign the minimum order quantity to that group.
Then, click Add to set minimal quantity for other customer groups.
Even though Magento 2 default supports setting minimum and maximum order quantity for products added to shopping cart, admin cannot explicitly set minimum quantity for each product category, nor restrict maximum quantity for customer group or product category. Besides, if further speculating the function of setting min/max quantity, Magento 2 default only allows setting limitation for individual products only, not for the product category or the entire cart. The limitation of quantity restriction is one big drawback that still exists in Magento 2.
