REST API - Supplier Contact ID is fetching the same ID as PER_PARTY_ID from backend

Hello Team,

We have identified an issue with the Supplier Contacts REST API (GET/GETALL/POST/PATCH methods). Specifically, the SupplierContactID field returned in the API response is currently reflecting the Person Party ID, rather than the actual Supplier Contact ID as stored in the POZ_SUPPLIER_CONTACTS table.

Given this discrepancy, we would like to confirm whether the SupplierContactID value provided by the REST API can be reliably used as the primary identifier for a supplier contact

REST API:

URL: https://<ENV>/fscmRestApi/resources/11.13.18.05/suppliers/{SUPPLIER ID}/child/contacts

Method: GET

We appreciate your guidance on how to proceed with this issue.
