You Can Now Archive A Supplier
Archiving a supplier no longer breaks anything that references them. An archived supplier still shows up wherever they're linked — purchase orders, order fulfillments, products, and supplier contacts all keep the supplier's name and details instead of going supplier-less. Their own detail page still marks them as archived.
You can still edit an archived supplier's record, and a PO whose supplier is archived still falls back to the supplier's email when there's no other contact on file. Adding a new line item to a PO with an archived supplier no longer tries to create a fresh product-to-supplier link behind the scenes — the line item is just added.
