Consignment Process
This is a Special procurement process & In this Process, the Vendor Provide Material to the
Company and store them on company premises, but the ownership of the material belongs
to the vendor until the company withdraws or issue material from the Consignment stock.
When the Company issue material from consignment stock then the company is liable to
pay money to the vendor.
Example: Tyre Manufacturer provide tyre to an Automobile Company and stores them in the
Automobile Company's premises & once the consumption of Tyre is started by the Buyer
Company for vehicle production then the company will pay money to the tyre Supplier based
on the consumption of tyre.
Prerequisite points:
1. Consignment Info record Should be maintained With Price and Tax Code for material
against the vendor.
2. Conditions record should be maintained for conditions type KON using T code MRM1.
3. If you have several purchase organizations then you need to assign one purchase org to
plant as Standard Purchase org to determine the Info record for settling the withdrawal of
material.
The speciality of Process:
1. System does not allow to put the price in Consignment Purchase Order, the price will take
from the Consignment Info Record during Settlement process.
2. Consignment Stock is a special kind of stock. The stock is lying at the Company Storage
Location, but the responsibility belongs to the vendor.
