Hi,
Pls follow following steps:
On the Create Vendor MK01 or Xk01: Initial Screen, enter the number of the vendor (external number assignment) or the system generates it (internal number assignment). Enter a purchasing organization, a company code, and an  account group.
Choose Enter.
On subsequent screens, enter the following data:
General data
Examples are the address, control data, and data relevant to payment.
In the Contact Person view enter information on contact persons at the vendor.
Company Code Data
Examples are payment data and correspondence data.
Purchasing Organization Data
Examples are purchasing data and partner functions.
Enter the following additional data as Extras in the Purchasing Data or Partner Function screens:
Sub-ranges
Assign a vendor one or more sub-ranges.
Regions of supply
Define the country and region that the vendor is to supply.
Partner/Vendor
Obtain an overview of the partner functions defined for each level at which data can be maintained.
Tariff preference
Enter customs tariff preference data.
Vend. charact. values
Assign vendor characteristic values to your company's internal characteristic values. Select an internal characteristic from the list that appears of those used by your company. The Maintain Vendor Charact. Values screen appears, where you make your assignment.
Alternative data
In addition to entering general data that applies to the whole purchasing organization, you can also enter data for a particular site or vendor sub-range that differs from the general data.
On the Create Alternative Data screen, enter the vendor sub-range or site levels at which you are creating different data. Select Purchasing data or Partner Functions.
Choose Create.
The Dif. Purch. Data or the Partner Functions screen appears. In the top of the screen, you see the vendor sub-range or site levels for which you enter different data.
Via Goto -> Back, you branch to an overview of the levels that exist at which you can enter different data.
Choose Create to create further levels on which different data can be maintained.
Select an item and choose Purchasing details or Partner details to display or enter differing data.
Choose Purchasing overview to obtain an overview of the purchasing data for every level. The Overview Purchasing Data screen lists the levels and the field entries at these levels. By selecting an item in the list and choosing Purchasing details, you branch to the purchasing data view. Enter purchasing data.
Choose Goto -> Back to return to the purchasing data valid for the purchasing organization.
In Customizing, you define whether additional levels for data maintenance within a purchasing organization are allowed, and what these levels are, for each account group. You can change these settings in the vendor master record you are creating (Extras -> Add.purchasing data). This lets you control the levels at which you enter different data for each vendor.
Classification
Choose Environment -> Classification to classify the vendor using inherited characteristics.
Save.
Hope it helps...
