In addition to the standard stock determination function, you have the option of using consignment stocks for delivery.
The prerequisite for this function is that the following parameters be defined in Customizing:
Stock determination rule
Stock determination group
You can maintain the stock determination rule in the
Define item categories for deliveries
Customizing activity.
In the material master, the respective material must be assigned to a stock determination group.
Stock determination takes place during posting of goods issue.
Note
If you are using the Warehouse Management System (WMS) or picking using WMS, stock determination takes place already when you create the transfer order and not later at the time when the goods issue is posted.
You can also define the stock withdrawal sequence by making the appropriate settings in Customizing. For example, you can first use your own stock, and then fall back on vendor consignment stock.
