In 'Fixed Reorder Qty.' replenishment policy, minimum order quantity overrides the reorder quantity suggesting replenishment orders with Minimum order quantity & hence more frequent orders to match the demand & maintain the reorder point.

It would rather preferable if the system suggests a replenishment order which equals 'Reorder quantity' & then from there it should calculate further supply & demand match entries.

If the stock is going above the overflow level due to this replenishment, then the replenishment order should be generated for a later time when it would not be above overflow level; but still with quantity as 'Reorder point' on replenishment order. In such a case it should be okay for supply (Stock) to fall below reorder point as long as it's above safety stock level (Or maybe even to a level predefined by user e.g., 40% of reorder point).
