Element 4.6.3. of ISO 9001 states that "purchasing documents shall contain data clearly describing the product ordered....".
My question is this. Is it a requirement that the purchasing specifications state a quantity of item to be purchased? For instance, a Purchasing spec may be for cleaning fluid and identify the fluid by part number. The manufacturer of the cleaning fluid lists 4 different size containers of the cleaning fluid for that part number. (Typically we use the purchase order to define what quantity we require i.e. 1 Liter or 1.5 Liter).
