Consignment Contract 

Purpose

The following section describes the creation of a consignment contract, the creation of a release order referencing that contract, the posting of the relevant goods receipt, the transfer of the consignment stock to a cost center, and how the liabilities incurred as a result of these transactions are determined.

It is not necessary to create a new consignment contract and a source list each time in order to illustrate this process. If you merely want to demonstrate the processing of requisitions and purchase orders, display the existing consignment contract 46000018 (USA) or 4600000002 (Germany) and start with the procedure Creating a Purchase Requisition.

You can find more information about this process under .
