Suppliers
1 Two companies: Supplier 1 Ltd/Suplier 2 Ltd: system needs to identify which from company the email has to go e.g. Emails to Company X Ltd can ONLY go from Supplier 1 Ltd and emails to Company Y Ltd can ONLY go from Suplier 2 Ltd; so, emails cannot be sent from the wrong account
2 Supplier order details: drop down menu and ability to add notes and different discounts plus CAP data (see

Internal
Backend note system whereby if a customer calls in with a query, the system generates an internal email to staff and an external to the customer acknowledging their call/enquiry
