Preference

Each Catalogue entry is given a preference. The Preference is used to detect which supplier should be purchased from first when placing Regular and Catch Up purchase orders. The most preferred supplier is the supplier with the highest Preference (ie. the Preference that appears highest on the pulldown list of Preferences). When using semi-automatic purchasing you can select a cut off point in the suppliers Preferences. In this way you can control which products will be purchased from the nominated supplier.
