Ranks are set by the Preferred Supplier Administrator, which requires a specific license within ESP+.

What do the List Conflict Settings do? (click for answer)
A company can create up to five preferred supplier lists and sometimes, more than one may be assigned to the same company and/or website(s). In these cases, if one list has a supplier ranked as a 2 and the other has the same supplier ranked as a 1, you are also able to specify which ranking you would like to refer to, the higher rank or the lower one. To set up this option, just click the radio button next to your choice (High to Low or Low to High).
Once you have established the preferred list rankings and defaults, you can create a new list and manage your existing lists.
