The minimum stock represents the 'desired lowest quantity' of a product in your warehouse. Optiply will always increase your stock to at least that level when we purchase a product. The purchase advice for a product might also be higher, but never lower than the minimum stock.
If you would like Optiply to automatically plan extra order moments when your stock is below the minimum stock for a product, activate the 'Backorder Feature'. We plan an order moment when a stock level gets below the minimum stock, and the order conditions are met.
