Insert a Supplier

Creates a new supplier relation in Bloxs.

A developer calls this endpoint to register a new business from which purchase invoices will be received, rather than update an existing one. On success, Bloxs generates and returns the internal reference and display name for the new record, along with the full stored data.

The correspondence method determines whether an email address or a postal address must be supplied.
