Summary
Shadow supplier groups are used to provide stock items with specific values associated with the group to which they belong. For instance, if stock item 'A' is linked to shadow supplier 'X', group '01' and group '01' is set up with an alternative supplier of Company 'K', then stock item 'A' will have a main supplier of 'X', an alternative supplier of company 'K' and a group of '01' when the item is copied to the main stock file.
