Material data tab in a PO that has a field in which I can enter the sub range vendor. But, I understand that it has to do with the vendor (VN) only....and in fact, I would need to have a sub range for someone different than the vendor.

Scenario is the following:

I have a vendor VN, which is the main principal vendor; under this vendor I have traders, manufacturers and under these, I have the suppliers which are the ones I would want to use for the purpose of sub range .
I cannot enter all the suppliers under the vendor....quite impossible, too many but, the system issues an error message if I enter in the sub range a supplier which is not entered in the VN master record.

Can I do that differently? Is there a way to change that?

Also: what is the principle behind the sub range field in the vendor master? I was under the impression it should contain a vendor code but i see it is not so....
