What does “5%+/- of ordered qty is considered a completed order” mean?
If, for example, you order 1000 ballpoint pens, the factory may produce 1000 pens but Quality Control finds that 6 of the pens were misprinted. These pens would be removed leaving 994. The factory will not reproduce the extra 6 pens. Similarly, if in the process of printing, the factory prints 1008 pens, that’s the amount they would ship. In the case of 1000 pens, the allowable discrepancy is 5% or 50 pens. If the amount of the discrepancy is “tiny” no adjustments are made to the invoice. If the discrepancy is significant, an adjustment will be made and is to be considered a completed order.
