Nathan,

Thinking about this a little further (multiple tenants).  I see 2 
patterns for multiple tenants.  #1 is where each tenant has their own 
library(s).   #2 where tenants share the same library and tables but 
they have a field that provides separation such as supplier_Id or 
customer_id.  Using the same technique of data driven authentication for 
external users, each tenant or supplier upon authentication is 
associated with their supplier_id which is then substituted in the SQL 
such as:  Select * from SingleLIB/purchase_orders where supplier_id = 
??!SUPPLIER_ID_FROM_SESSION
