  SAP Error Message: WY037 - Supplier sub-ranges still exist
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you attempt to delete or change a supplier master record or a supplier-related entity, but there are still supplier sub-ranges (subdivisions of the supplier number range) assigned or existing for that supplier. SAP prevents the deletion or modification because these sub-ranges are dependent on the supplier master data and must be removed or reassigned first.
  Supplier sub-ranges are often used in procurement processes to differentiate between different parts of a supplier's business or different supplier accounts under a main supplier number.
  
  When does it occur?
  
  When deleting a supplier master record in transaction XK06 or MK06.
  When changing supplier number ranges or related configurations.
  When trying to delete or modify a supplier that has assigned sub-ranges in purchasing documents or master data.

  Check for existing supplier sub-ranges:
