In order for auto create purchase order from purchase request, there needs to be a default row maintained always with below values. Without this rule there will be no fall back behavior and the creation may result in error which is why a check was introduced to make sure this fall back is maintained.

Company ID                      Supplier ID                       Origin Type              Product Category             Creating options

         *                                     *                                        *                                   *                            Create manually / Create automatically

Irrespective of what other rules the user sets up, the above rule should mandatory be maintained as the last row of the rule table the creating options can be set as manual or automatic but all other attributes should have value.
