No, Nicolas said that, but Olivier said the inverse.
In our proposition:
- if you create a contact in the context of a purchase, he is supplier
by default
- if it's not in the context of a purchase (not from Suppliers menu or
from RfQ), it's not a supplier by default.
For the same Company, you can have contacts that are suppliers
(salespersons of your supplier) and others that are customers (people
that purchased). OpenERP sets everything correctly by default, but you
can still change the default value.
There are no synchro of "is_supplier", "is_customer" between contacts
which is IMHO an improvement compared to v6.1
