Enter Basic Data for Customer Consignment Stock

Explanation

A consignment stock at a customer is a warehouse located at a customer site but containing goods that belong to our company. That is to say that the ownership transfer does not take place until the customer uses the goods and reports a consumption.

To define a consignment stock management for deliveries to a customer, you must define the combination of customer, delivery address, site, and sales part. After this all deliveries to the customer will be treated as consignment stock. Invoicing will not be possible until the customer reports a consumption of the goods. The use of customer consignment stock can be manually overridden on the customer order line by unmarking a check box.

When defining the customer consignment stock management, you must also enter an order point for a refill order. If the consignment stock quantity on hand falls below the order point, a refill order can be automatically created.

Prerequisites

• A customer with a delivery address must have been entered.
• The sales part in question must have been entered on the correct site in the system.
