Material Requests for which Supplier Quotations are not created

This report lists Material Requests with purpose Purchase that have no Supplier Quotation linked to them yet, so the buyer sees which requests still need prices from suppliers before a Purchase Order can be placed. It joins Material Request items to Supplier Quotation items and keeps the ones with no match. For a small business that buys without formal quotations the list simply mirrors open purchase requests; for one that must compare three prices on every purchase, as many NGO and tender funded buyers in Nepal must, it is the control that no order is placed without quotations. Nothing posts; it drives the Request for Quotation step.
