MVS Vendor ID assignment

[mangus580]

At what point when an item is added to the cart, does the vendors_id get assigned? I am trying to set up a small mod, that will check stock on an item during the cart add, and change the vendor if stock is too low. Basic theory is, that stocked items would be under the main store vendor. I am adding some fields that would let you set an alternate vendor for each product. And I want to move the item to the alternate vendor if there is not enough in stock on the main. Should be pretty straight forward to do, I just cant seem to find where the ID is assigned as it builds the cart.

 

Thanks
