Special Order Product 

You can create a non-stock product for special orders from a particular supplier.  You can add the supplier on the product set up screen, so that it will be filled in when creating the purchase order.  This will keep all special order items grouped together in the product history.  The special order product can also be added to a category for reporting and lookup.
