J58 - Customer Consignment Processing

Process Flow

Consignment Fill-up:

• Consignment fill-up order: The company owned stock at customer site has to be replenished. An order can be triggered by a customer's call or report or even without any customer initiative.
• Outbound delivery: A delivery is created in order to transfer the goods to the consignment stock. Within the delivery, the physical quantity is picked.
• GI consignment: After the goods have been picked, the delivery is posted for goods issue.
• Stock Overview: The goods are now in the customer's consignment stock. The stock overview will reflect the transfer of products.

Consignment Issue:

• Consignment issue order: The articles and quantities sold by the customer are entered.
• Outbound delivery: An outbound delivery is created to reflect the material movement out of the companies stock.
• No physical picking is carried out, but the batches sold by the customer must be specified.
• Goods issue: When the goods issue is created, the transfer from the consignment stock is carried out. This means that the articles are no longer in the property of the company.
• Invoice: Once the goods issue has been posted, the delivery can be invoiced. Appropriate accounting and controlling documents are generated.

Consignment Pick-up:

• Consignment pick-up order: The consignment pick-up triggers the return of goods from the customer's custody.
• Returns delivery for the order: For the shipment of the company's goods from the customer consignment stock back to the warehouse, a delivery of the type LR (returns delivery) is created.
