This setting will ensure that a decimal value for a stocked item order quantity gets rounded to 1.

Use case and explanation
Do not tick this box. Why bother with the admin for items with sales this small?
In most instances, re-classify items to non-stocked if their forecast is a low value year round.
Keep an item as stocked if it’s an A-Low item with a massive selling price or if the reason it has a low forecast NOW, is because it’s out of season and the forecast will increase again.
If you have a product with a forecast of 1 for the entire year, this setting will keep you stocked at 1 unit rather than waiting to buy arbitrarily when you get close to the forecast of 1.
This can be viewed as a very expensive configuration parameter to tick. Don’t just consider the unit costs involved with ordering items with a low forecast, but also the cost involved with order handling, storing, counting and cleaning an item that isn’t selling. The juice is not worth the squeeze.
