Suppliers

Suppliers are contractor houses, companies and other entities that supply goods to the organisation, including spares or services.

The term "supplier" is often used synonymously with "vendor" but may also indicate an internal company resource.

The supplier entity supports hierarchical relationships to model parent-child supplier structures for example a company with divisions; or a contractor with subcontractors.
