How to set SKU supplier

Connecting suppliers to the SKU we want to procure. We can make the connection through the SKU settings or through the vendor settings.

When we want to connect the product with the supplier through the SKU settings, we need to enter the product itself, click on the Suppliers tab, and enter the supplier for that product (from our previously entered database of suppliers). For each product we can optionally enter one or more suppliers, we can also select a default supplier. The following information that is required to enter is the SKU CODE for which we connect the supplier, the External Code, the External Name, the Price without tax in the supplier's currency, and the Discount if any. This action should be repeated for each SKU we procure.

If the product has only one variant, ie. one SKU, the procedure is simpler because we add suppliers that include only that one SKU. If the product has more options (color, size, material ...) it will have proportionally more combinations of SKUs. For each of these SKUs, we need to add a supplier. In some cases, we will procure products for all SKUs from the same supplier, while in some cases, for example, we will procure black folders from one manufacturer, while we will procure red and white ones from another vendor.

When we want to connect the product SKU through the supplier settings, we need to enter the list of suppliers, select the specific one for whom we want to connect the product, and then enter the SKU tab. Here we can search for existing SKUs for the supplier or we can add an SKU and connect the product to the supplier.
