Project can have sub-contractors with contra material purchase by main contractor to buy on behalf. Let's say user is a main contractor and has a project but outsource to sub contractors. Sub contractors would like the main contractor to purchase on behalf their materials so that they can do their work. This plugin can solve this, consolidate all documents under the same Project ID, and auto generate the Credit Memo when the Materials is Received without redundant work. Download the jar from https://sourceforge.net/projects/red1/f ... anagement/.

Fill in two items, in this case Elm Tree and Oak for 5 items each. Save, and go back and you see the Material tab populated automatically. If you have more than one supplier, you have to specify one of them first. The system will check if it is one of the supplier list to that product. User must separate out different suppliers via different Material records.
