Consignment Settlement(MRKO) Problem
Hi,
For consignment stocks, after GR from PO, we'll either do a mvt:211K to cost ctr or mvt:411K to inventory. Now this will create a settlement entry in MRKO based on the existing PIR(purchase info record) unit price.
After 6 months, vendor sends the invoice for the above PO but with a different unit price billed. In this case how can we settle the consigment items(based on the orginial 211K and 411K PIR price) in MRKO as the price does not tie back to the vendor invoice price. Any possibilties to do the consignment settlement based on the vendor invoice latest unit price?
Thanks,
Teo
Teo,
To be clear the vendor should not be sending an invoice for goods on consignment. However I understand that this is done as we are facing the same delima.
The only way to settle using the price on the invoice the vendor sent, is to reverse your goods issues, change the price and do the goods issue again. Not a good process and in most cases not a supportable work process.
Our current process is to settle the consignment, reverse the invoice and post an FI invoice to match the invoice the supplier sent. We are considering changing that process to settle the consignment then post a subsequent debit/credit.
Good luck. I hope someone else has a better answer for you. I have posted a similar question to this forum and did not receive any helpful responses.

Sandra

Linking Consignment Settlement (MRKO) with Value Contract
Hi Guys,
We are trying to set up Consignment stock functionality in our company. We have successfully configured and tested it but there is only one problem, we want to link this consignment functionality with and Outline agreement (Value Contract to be exact), so that every time we do a settlement using MRKO, the invoice value is deducted from the total value of the contract. My first question is
1 - Can we link consignment settlement (MRKO) and Value Contract in such a way that each time we run consignment settlement using MRKO , the open/ remaining value of the Value Contract is decreased by the invoice amount. If YES, then how can we do it (Please mention the steps if possible)
2- If NO, then what is the way to achieve above task, is their workaround for it ??Normally we do not get into consignment arrangements with supplier with value limites or qty limites. It defeats the purpose of consignment, where idea is to reduce inventory carrying cost and yet have full availability of stock.
Also, you will provide a dedicated space in your premises to your Supplier and hence to limit him with total value of your consumption is difficult to achieve. Even if you make some enhancement in system to achieve it, on shop floor how can you control it, if you have inventory open for use? If you have negotiated with consignment vendor based on value, I am sure Vendor will not replenish any inventory once he thinks that overall value limit is breached and hence suddenly one day, without any indicators to you, you will run out of those components which you do not have in your inventory, nor in your consignment inventory.
You can implement any exit, which may stop you post the transaction in system, but I believe if you are entering into such contracts with your supplier, you may need to have some sort of notification once you are close approaching the overall limit, to either re-negotiate the contract or to have those components ordered for your inventory directly to ensure availability of stock.

If yes what is the transaction code for this??
Kindly advise me on the above.
Thanks and Regards.

Consignment settlement (MRKO) with reference to PI vendor partner
Hi,
To day our consignment settlement documents are being created with reference to the VN partner. How can we drive the consignment settlement to be created with reference to the PI vendor partner?
Thanks and regards, Jose Oyon.Jose,
There is no SAP standard way to do this. You would need to customize the solution to make this happen. There is an OSS note explaining why this is not standard functionality. Sorry I don't have the OSS number but it should be an easy search.

MRKO Consignment settlement against a PI partner
Hi
I have a problem with the vendor the MRKO settles against. The scenario is that I want to settle the against a PI maintained in the vendor master (in the partner function) which is different to the VN that the MRKO run settles against because this is the vendor the info record is created for and the PO was created against.
Please help
ShashiCheck the OSS note 451370
The consignment settlement does not take partner function 'Invoice presented by' possibly stored in the vendor master into account but instead always creates the consignment invoice with reference to the vendor of the consignment goods.This vendor must be created in the relevant company code and purchasing organization.
Other terms
RMVKON00
Reason and Prerequisites
For the following reasons, the consignment settlement is unable to take partner role 'Invoicing party presented by' stored in the vendor master into account and can only create the invoice for the goods supplier:
1. Normally, the consignment liability account is managed as a current account.The posting period and the vendor number are usually the sort and assignment criterion of the items on the account.Only by using this sort/assignment criteria can you determine from an FI point of view which consignment liabilities are created in a certain posting period for a certain vendor, and to what extent these were cleared by an invoice.
2. The inventory management of the consignment stock is always executed for the goods supplier and the goods movements are always executed with reference to this vendor accordingly.The resulting posting of the consignment liability is therefore executed with the number of this vendor as part of the sort/assignment criterion.
3. If the settlement of the consignment withdrawals does not then work with this vendor but instead works with the invoicing party assigned to this vendor, this would cause the posting on the consignment liability account to contain the vendor number of the invoicing party as a sort and assignment criterion, as the document only contains this vendor. Therefore, the postings could no longer be cleared and the documents could no longer be archived.It would also no longer be possible to execute evaluations via the consignment liability account for the determination of open items.
For the above reasons, in consignment processing, you can only work with the goods supplier which must be created in the corresponding company code and the corresponding purchasing organization. -
Consignment and Pipeline Settlement - MRKO
Hi All,
Is there any way to remove Zero and Negative values from 'Consignment and Pipeline Settlement' (MRKO). I am having material documents with Zero and Negative values and when I tried to Settle them, so that would not appear next time in the list, getting error "Zero value in amount is not allowed". Is there any way I can delete them so that these record will not appear in MRKO.
Thanks
AnilHi Anil,
How you are getting ZERO and Negative Vale for consignment?
Consignment settlement will happens after withdrawal of goods or after Sales based on your Consignment Purchase Info record.

MRKO - Consignment settlement cleaning up
Hi all,
Currently we have the consignment settlement under MRKO back to year 2003.
The root cause for this is the list of material document was not posted as the purchasing info record was not maintained back on year 2003 and upon good issue, the movement is not valuated with no material document as it will not have the purchase price from the purchasing info record. Thus it will show only 0(zero) value on MRKO list whereby it is not able to settle.
So are there any way that we can settle this consignment as it is back to year 2003, i'm not looking into the option of reversed the good movement from year 2003 to currently fiscal year 2010.
Hope you can provide some better alternative.
Thank you.
Kah Feihi chakrapani,
If i would like to reverse the good movement and perform the MRKO based on the current period. From the financial side, did you see any huge impact. For what i can think will be all the consignment only will be incurs now with the financial document posting as the previous posting back on year 2003 has not been capture as it doesnt have any price maintain.
Hope to hear from you.

Consignment Settlement By MRKO
Hi Friends,
I know the consignment process from Consignment Info Record to MIGO. But when I am about to settle the consignment by using the T.code MRKO, I am not succeeding. Although when I am executing MRKO, i am getting the list of Consignment Stock. Further how to settle it, I don't know.
Plz help me out.
Thanks & Regards
Saeed ArifHi
For doing consignment settlement we have to use MRKO. What are the necessary steps to be followed while dealing with this T.Code MRKO?
For doing consignment settlement.
you should have consignment PO ( item category K) with tax code
Info recore is must with consignment
when u received the good through movement type 101K no accounting do will generate. since it is not valuated materila ( it owns by the vendor)
Transfer the consignment materila to own (movemetn type 411K ) or Goods issue to consumption( movement type 201K) ... now accounting document will generate.
settele the the account through MRKO transcation.
If you find error that messeage determination not set.... go the SPRP setting ..logistic Invoce verification > Messeage determination >>> maintain condition >>> create condition.... create for KONS
Hope this will useful

Consignment settlement process MRKO

regards,
zafarHI,
You can goto tcode MRM1, specify the condition type = "KONS" for consignment and Company code = 1000
Remember not to specify the partner in the condition record.
Then proceed to MRKO to do your consignment settlement
One more setting, select the SETTLE and remove DISPLAY under the procesing option tab and execute the transaction..

How can I settle just 1 line item using MRKO (consignment settlement)?
Hi All,
In consignment settlement, if for a given company code, say material document 41234552 has 3 unsettled line items, say 1 2 3.
Is there a way I settle just line item 1 and 3 and not settle line item 2 for the material document 41234552?

Automotatic Message Determination:Consignment Settlement
Friends,
I need some help in after doing the consignment settlement process:
After I run MRKO and settle the consignment once a month, I need to send a form to the vendor detailing the settlements done over the period of one month.
My questions specifically are:
1. What are the output methods for this form?
2. I think there would be several, if so, how do I configure email,fax etc.
3. Also, after I settle, I am trying to send the document to the local printer but I am getting the following error message
"No messages for initial processing exist". Can someone please explain what are the places I need to check to make sure everything is configured properly.
Thanks in advance ....
Cheers.
ChanduPankaj-
Thanks for your prompt reply. However this did not solve my problem. Please look at my comments below and respond:
1. What are the output methods for this form?
Ans: - SAP Standard output type is "KONS"
I am using the KONS, but I am unable to see email as an option. I see simple mail, but do not see email.
2. I think there would be several, if so, how do I configure email,fax etc.
Ans: - Use the appropriate transmission medium in MRM1/MRM2 for KONS
In MRM1/MRM2, I have configured my CoCode using the PI partner function with options 1(Transmission medium:Printer) and 4 (print immediately)
3. Also, after I settle, I am trying to send the document to the local printer but I am getting the following error message
"No messages for initial processing exist". Can someone please explain what are the places I need to check to make sure everything is configured properly.
Ans: - Go to MR90 and here in selection screen, specify the "Processing mode" as "2" i.e. Repeat processing or "3" i.e. Error processing and then execute and print it again.
*I tried mr90 and mr91 transactions with 1,2 and 3 options. But it still gives me the same error - No messages for first/repeat/error processing exist * -
Consignment settlement output title
Hi,
we print a KONS output (MR_PRINT form) for consignment settlements (triggered by trans. MRKO). On the paper ouput we need to slighly rephase the name of the document printed in French language. For example - from "Consignment invoice" to 'Consignment consumption settlement". Please advise where are stored texts for titles in different languages.
Thanks a lot
Kind regards
MarcelaInteresting - I've always known the t-code and have not tried to access through the SAP menu so can't tell you differently.
In the end SAP standard is not designed to output consignment documents via MR90 so you will need to make adjustments to your user profiles and processes to use MR91.

Consignment settlement using currency USDN
Dear All,
I have a question in regards to consignment settlement using currency type USDN.
**My client would want to use 5 decimal places and hence using USDN currency type**
At present for consignment process, we are maintaining a Cons info record with 5 decimals using USDN currency type.
And apparently this is the only place where we can control the currency through the whole process till settlement.
Once PO, MIGO and the transfer posting is done, during the settlement process MRKO, the final document currency is obtained in USDN
Is there any way we can obtain the document currency in USD and yet have 5 decimals? like having a user exitHi,
Before MRKO, check following;
1. ME11 - Purchase Info Record with Info Category "Consignment" (In PIR, maintain Net Price as well as Tax Code)
2. MB1B - Transfer stock from Consignment to Unrestricted (own stock), using 411 K
3. MRM1 - Maintain condition record for Output type KONS i.e. Consignment
4. MRKO - Refer the Material document of 411 K and In selection screen select "Withdrawals Not Settled" and Under procesing select "Settle" radio button.
