What effect does skipping the Supplier Site assignment step have on the import process?

Skipping the Supplier Site assignment step during the import process can lead to gaps in supplier data. This step is crucial because it associates a supplier with specific locations or sites where they operate, and without completing this assignment, the system may not have all the necessary details regarding where a supplier's services or products are available. As a result, the import process could yield incomplete records, potentially leading to issues in procurement, vendor management, and overall supply chain effectiveness.

Having accurate supplier site data is essential for ensuring that transactions, deliveries, and communications are properly aligned with the relevant locations. Thus, if this step is overlooked, the resulting data may lack vital information needed for effective supplier management and operational efficiency.
