When you save this page, if you have not already established an item supplier relationship for the selected item supplier combination, the system asks you if you want to create it. If you choose to create the relationship, the ITM_VENDOR table inserts a new row for this item supplier combination. If you choose not to create the data, you can still continue the analysis and award of RFQ responses.
