**Flag Purpose:** Retain Branch Transfer supplier on special buy-in supplier selections

The **SOPRetBT** flag controls whether the supplier on a sales order or quote line is replaced when using the special buy-in function. The SOPRetBT flag only applies when the current supplier is an internal branch (branch transfer supplier). For all other supplier types, the special buy-in supplier always replaces the existing supplier regardless of the SOPRetBT flag setting.

- **When enabled,** the internal branch transfer supplier is retained on the sales order or quote line when a special buy-in supplier is selected. The cost on the line is still updated from the special buy-in contract, but the supplier remains as the internal branch.
- **When disabled (default),** the internal branch transfer supplier is replaced by the special buy-in supplier. The cost is updated from the special buy-in contract.
