# 🚧 Order Limits

The **Order Limits** feature within the BSS B2B Solution app allows you to define purchase thresholds for your customers, ensuring that orders meet your business requirements. Whether you're aiming to set a minimum purchase amount or a maximum quantity per order, this tool provides the flexibility to tailor your store's purchasing rules.

## What It Does

* Set **minimum** or **maximum** purchase thresholds (quantity or dollar amount)
* Apply rules to specific customers or customer groups
* Show clear guidance messages to customers when limits are not met
* Combine with Quantity Increments for complete order quantity control

The **enforcement scope** (per variant, per product, or total order) is a global setting for the whole module — you choose one scope that all rules share.

## Key Features

* **Flexible Rule Types**: Choose between setting a minimum or maximum order quantity or amount, allowing you to control both the number of items and the total value of orders.
* **Customer Segmentation**: Apply rules to specific customers or customer tags, enabling targeted restrictions for different groups.
* **Product-Specific Rules**: Assign order limits to individual products, ensuring that certain items adhere to specific purchasing guidelines.
* **Clear Customer Notifications**: When customers attempt to checkout with quantities or amounts that don't meet the set limits, they'll receive clear messages, guiding them to adjust their orders accordingly.
