Assigning Supplier Inspectors

Supplier Inspectors are responsible for buying off supplier FAIRs. Only users with the "E-First Article Inspector" User Type are eligible to be assigned to a supplier.

If no Supplier Inspectors are assigned to a supplier, then ANY E-First Article Inspector can approve a FAIR from that supplier. 

As soon as you add a single inspector for a supplier. Then ONLY those assigned to the supplier can approve a FAIR from that supplier.
