1) When an organization decides to purchases the same items of inventory from different suppliers, the cardinality between the Supplier and Inventory tables is M:M.
2) When a the company purchases all items of a certain type from only one supplier, the cardinality between Supplier and Inventory tables is 1:M respectively.
3) A policy that a separate receiving report is prepared for the receipt of goods specified on a single purchase order will result in a 1:1 cardinality between the receiving report and purchase order tables. If, however, multiple purchase orders are combined on a single receiving report then the cardinality between these tables will be 1: M respectively.
