I'd say it depends on the organization and what they want to do with
their suppliers. For creating purchase orders and such the
information in SupplierProduct is all that really matters, though it
certainly implies a relationship. There are various more "formal"
relationships that could be created between a company and its
suppliers but I don't know that any functionality depends on such
things at this point.
