Actually, the way of working is like this: for each of the products that we have included in this purchase we will mark the offers of the suppliers that seem most appropriate. And without having to make that choice for all products, click on the button <u>Create orders</u> that are on top of the product table, and the page will display a new table with the orders to be created for each supplier, if there were several suppliers selected, and the products to ask each one:

If we click on the <u>Extra information</u> button, the supplier has the option of adding a general comment on this &quot;possible order&quot;, and can also provide us with more complete contact information.
