Documentation

Definition

Subdivision of a vendor's entire product range according to various criteria.

For each vendor subrange:

  • The master data is kept on a common basis
  • Certain conditions apply

Use

In the vendor master, you can create different purchasing data and different partner functions for each vendor subrange.
You can also maintain and change the conditions for each vendor subrange. You assign a material to a vendor subrange in the info record.

Dependencies

In the vendor master, you can maintain different data for particular vendor subranges, such as ordering addresses or terms of payment, for example.

When creating a purchase order with a known vendor, different data is only determined if the vendor subrange is entered on the initial screen.

Example

Your vendor Smith in Boston has two subranges: paint and adhesives.

All materials from the "paint" subrange are ordered in Boston.

You have maintained an alternative ordering address in New York for the "adhesives" subrange.

If you order materials from the "adhesives" subrange, the vendor subrange is used to determine the ordering address as New York.
