Linking of sharepoint lists cross-referenced
Hi all,
I'm all new to sharepoint and trying to create a site/portal which will be used as some kind of database for products, vendors, and possibly later also storage-locations within our company.
To shape this, i'd like to take the following approach:
First, a List about products used in our company, in this example a screwdriver is listed:
PRODUCTLIST
Product | ProductNumber internal | Manufacturer | Manufacturer ProductNumber | Notes |
PZ2 Screwdriver | EX123 | Gedore | 6684190 | Good screwdriver for this or that Lorum Ipsum |
Than, a seperate list with all vendors used/known within our company:
VENDORLIST
Vendor | City | Delivery-agreements | Contact Person | |
ABC-Toolmaster.com | Stockholm | mailto:ABC@Example.com | Delivery always carriage-paid | Elvis Presley |
XYZ-Tools.com | New York | mailto:XYZ@example.com | Delivery always within 24h | Kelly Monroe |
SuperOfficeSupplies.com | Los Angeles | mailto:STU@Example.com | Delivery always on Friday | John Doe |
Now the tricky part, i'd like to make a connection between these two lists. Example situation:
Our purchaser sees need to buy (internal)product number EX123 (which is a Gedore 6684190 screwdriver). For this, he looks at the productlist and then should be able to see that this product is available either from vendor ABC-Toolmaster.com, with their price and vendor-productnumber, but also from vendor XYZ-Tools.com with their respective price and vendor-productnumber.
That said, i'd like to make a reference containing data from both tables, and some extra info (vendor-productnumber, price, etc.). Offcourse this info should be entered when creating a new product.
I'm not really getting how to implement this without having double-data or limited amount of vendors per product, hoping anyone over here could point me in the right direction on how to accomplish this.
Thanks in advance!

fietstasss I suggest doing this with Power Apps.

Thanks!
