What is the Purpose to Maintain Primary Supplier & Secondary Supplier?

Primary Suppliers / Main Suppliers are set to an Item for the reordering purposes. While reordering, all the associated items mapped with the Supplier can be loaded on the reorder screen.

Secondary Suppliers are also set for an item for the reordering process ,If we select others supplier all the associated items mapped with the supplier can be loaded.

Real Time business Scenario :- 

For Example, there is an Item called ''Ashirwad aata '' is mostly  Purchased by 'Aalehaya distributors', and if due to any reason not received

Ashriwd aata from alehaya distributors then will purchase from Aamin suppliers .

So in that case For ''Ashirwad aata '' we can set 'Aalehaya distributors' as Primary supplier and Aamin suppliers as secondary supplier.
