What are Quantity Limits?

Quantity limits refer to the boundaries defined in a restaurant's POS system that limit how many units of a particular item can be sold or ordered in a single order or during a specific time frame. They aid in inventory management, the prevention of special offer abuse, and the distribution of popular items more evenly.

Restaurants set limits for certain items, e.g., "max 2 per order" or "limit per customer per day." Once the customer or staff tries to put in more items than the limit, the POS will either decline the action or ask for approval.

Quantity limits are usually applied to promotional offers, limited-time-only items, or hard-to-find items. Restaurants can manage their inventory and prevent losses by using these methods, and give customers a similar service at any time.
