Client Query - Why do I Have Reorder Multiples in my Purchase Orders?

Problem/Question

When I create a purchase order, the reorder multiple x Qty area has a quantity and I don't want it to.

Solution 

The reorder multiple (X Qty) is populated because you have set a reorder multiple against that stock item in their [ Stock | Properties ] screen. We recommend keeping it as 0 if not needed as that will not try to multiply the quantity of the items you wish to purchase.

Note
Using reorder multiples the system will try to multiply the ordered quantity based on the Reorder Multiple. This is used where you might have to purchase items in trays of 24 but sell singularly.
