04/09/2019, 5:21 PMYou would need to have a client script written that listens for a field change on the drop ship field. When it sees the drop ship field change it will get the selected line from the sublist, pull the item record and from that item record get the vendors... iterate through the vendors and find the vendor that has the "drop ship vendor flag set".

You would have to figure out how to create that flag on the "record" that links item to vendor therefore only allowing one drop ship supplier per item.
