Well Hans,
LookupBulkAddSupplierProducts is already a request made in
controller.xml of Ordermgr. And this request open up a
LookupBulkAddSupplierProducts form, present in OrderEntryForms.xml which
shows the products dependent on supplier selected. Now, it is useful
because when user want to add multiple products into the cart then this
is the best way to do that. Otherwise user can add only one product at
a time . And if he want to add more than one product into the cart
then he needs to click on lookup multiple times. I think this helps you
to understand. Please let me know if I can help you more.
Thanks
