Additional Information

The new owner of the cart can add additional lines to the cart but only if the Category Prefix is the same. The Category Prefix can be found in the Category column of the cart line items (e.g., ZWA.GOODS, STANDARD.SERVICE). For example, prefix ZWA can be from SmartMart Catalog Suppliers or Amazon Business and the prefix STANDARD is from Non-Catalog Requisition. A single requisition can have Amazon Business and SmartMart Catalog Suppliers products and can have different suppliers for products, but must adhere to the same Category Prefix.

One requisition can only have one deliver-to address.
