Hi all,
I'm trying to set a negative value to the product's quantity, but I can't save the product.
You can order (via Frontend) a quantity greater than that available; then try to edit the product (via Backend), but you can't save it with the negative quantity (see the attachment).
Thank you for your attention.

I have the same problem here in Magento version 2.1.5, today i'll try 2.1.6 in the hope the problem has been fixed

I'm going to update now to 2.1.6. I will write the results here.
I have updated to 2.1.6 but the problem still exists.
Today i tried a fresh install but no luck.
I can confirm that this problem doesn't exists when 'Qty Uses Decimals' is set to Yes. Then a negative QTY is allowed. This could be a workaround but setting this to Yes allows a Qty of 1.25

Any updates on this problem?

We are unable to reproduce the issue in Magento 2.2. It seems to be fixed. However we are able to reproduce the issue in 2.1.5 and 2.1.6
@sadeeshmca Will there be a version 2.1.7 that fixes some issues present in 2.1.6 or is 2.1.6 te latest version in the 2.1 mainline?
I applied the commits to the files locally on my shop. These commits fixed the issue!
