Documentation

Definition

Subdivision of the total product pallet of a vendor according to various criteria.

The following applies for each vendor sub-range:

  • Master data is stored together
  • Specific conditions apply

Use

The assignment of a vendor sub-range in an info record enables the system to reduce multiple relationships (one plant - several ordering addresses at a vendor's) down to one unique relationship (one plant - one ordering address per sub-range of the vendor).

Example

In the vendor master record of a corporate group, vendors A and B are defined for receiving plant A. Vendor A delivers from the sub-range 'adhesives' sticky tape and glue, and vendor B delivers from the sub-range 'detergents' washing powder and stain remover.

A purchaser creates a purchase order for glue. He enters the material number and the receiving plant for this.
If the vendor sub-range is maintained in the purchasing info record, the system can assign the material sticky tape to the range 'adhesives' and thus determine vendor A as the source of supply.
