Our client wants to restrict users' ability to purchase certain products from any vendor except the default vendor for that product.  I don't think Customer and Vendor Visibility Restriction will help with this.  Any ideas?

Your assessment is correct.  This is an useful feature that applies to Purchasing and Sales.  Suggest you post an idea or vote for existing idea on the ideas/improvements forum.

That being said, and as we can't hold our breath until such improvement garners recognition (I posted this idea probably 5 years ago), you may be able to set up an approval rule to capture exceptions.  But what to test?  Idea:  Assumption: All inventory Items have a defined default vendor.  Then always fill in the Alternate Id for these inventory item and vendor(s) (it can be the same as Inventory code).  Then test if the alternate Id does not exist, then PO is subject to approval.
