Consignment Sales Process in India

Hi Gurus,
I want to know what is process flow for consignment sales
, e.g
VA01(KB/CF) -->VL01N(LF).........AND SO ON
Where do the Excise Transactions come into picture?
In consignment Fill-up, Do we generate Excise Invoice and what will be the rate of Excise duty?
Will Consignment-Pick-up be treated as Returns in context of Excise Duty?
Your responses will surely be appreciated and rewarded.
I have searched in forums, But process flow is not there.

I have searched in forums, But process flow is not there
I am sure, this is not a true statement !!!!!!!!
Many times, this topic was discussed in forums and almost every time, the process has been explained. In fact, on many occasions, I myself had explained.
One more time, I explain as below
Consignment Fillup Process
a) First you have to create a fillup order (type KB) from delivering plant on Sold to Party who places the order on plant. Based on this, plant proceeds with manufacturing and make ready the stock.
b) Once stock is ready, you would move the goods from delivering plant to special stock (Cust.Consignment) via fillup delivery (type LF) with movement type 631. Here once you do PGI, no material document would generate due to the fact that you just transfer the stock from one place to another place within the company code.
c) Next you generate proforma (type F8) against this PGId document where the excise duty would be statistical. Here also, no accounting document would be generated
d) Since the materials are being moved from manufacturing unit, you need to generate an excise invoice referencing the proforma and here, the excise people, will decide whether the exports (if it is exports) is to be made against Rebate or Bond or LUT. Here also, no accounting document would be generated
This ends the fill up process
The next stage is Consignment Issue Process.
a) Here you create an issue order (Type KE) referencing the proforma from the warehouse.
b) Against this issue order, you generate an issue delivery for the quantity whatever inwarded by end customer with movement type 633. Here a material document would generate as the stock goes out of the company
c) Finally you generate a commercial invoice (type F2) on end customer for whatever quantity they inwarded. Here also, an accounting document would be generated.
Hope now it is clear.
thanks

in consignment process, we have 4 stages.
first phase, company fill the goods at customer site,
still it is the property of company , is called as
consignment fill up,(CF)
When the customer consumes that material company issues the
invoice is called as consignmnet issue (CI)
if the customer finds tht he got any material defective he
returns is called as consignment return (CR)
when customer requests the company to take back the material
which is not sold by the consumer, the company will pick
this stock from the customer site is known as consignment
pick up (cp)
The consignment process in SAP standard consist of four small processes:
Consignment fillup (send materials to customer consignment).
Here you have a consignment fillup order and a consignment fillup delivery.
Consignment issue (issue materials from customer consignment to the customer).
Here you have a consignment issue order, consignment issue delivery and a consignment issue invoice. (the flow is very similar to a normal OR flow, but the materials are issued from the consignment stock instead of plant stock unrestricted).
Consignment return (return materials from customer ownership to customer consignment).
Here you have a consignment return order, consignment return delivery and a consignment return invoice. (the flow is very similar to a normal RE flow, but the materials are returned to the consignment stock instead of plant stock returns).
Consignment pickup (pickup consignment stock and move it to plant stock).
Here you have a consignment pickup order and a consignment pickup delivery.
Note that in consignment fillup and consignment pickup there are no invoices since there is no change of ownership for the materials.
How to perform a consignment order?
In consignment orders you are allowing the stock to sit in your customer location. Once he informs that he used the stock you will invoice him. If he returns the stock you will accept the stock to take it back.
It is defined in 4 steps.
1. Consignment fill up:
Sales document type is KB
Item category KBN
shedule line category E1
In this step, you are not invoicing the customer. document flow is sales order -
delivery item category. It will not be relevent for billing and pricing because you are not charging money for these goods in this step.
In schedule line category, you will set movement type 631 & set for availability check and TOR.
2. Consignment Issue.
Once the customer informed you that he used all the goods or partial goods then you will create consignment issue for used goods.
Sales document: KE
Item category: KEN
shedule line category: C0 or C1
Here you are invoicing the customer(because he used the goods). you are assigning the delivery documnt and billing document to the sales document.
In item category, you are setting relevent for billing, pricing, special stock.
In schedule line category, your setting is 633 movement type, relevent for availability check & TOR.
3. Consignment Return:
Customer found that some goods are damaged or he not able to sold the goods he want to send it back. that you are creating this document.
Sales document type: KR
Item category: KRN
Shedule line category: D0
You will assign delivery document and billing to sales document. you will create return order, return delivery, return billing.
Your setting item category relevent for billing, returns, pricing, special stock.
Your setting schedule line item category: 634 movement type, NO availability NO TOR.
4. Consignment Pick up:
Even if you create the consignment return the goods are not come to direct to your plant. For that you need to create consignment pick up. here the owner ship is not changing so you do not need to create billing.
Assign retrun delivery to sales document type.
Sales document: KA
Item category: KAN
schedule line category: F0 & F1
Your setting item category relevent for returns. any shedule line category relevent for 632 movement type, MRP, availability check, delivery.
Now you check your plant stock. Stock will increase.

Consignment sale process using third party.

Hi Friends
Whether one can do Consignment sale process using third party. That is instead of stock being supplied by the Company a third party supplies the goods directly to the customer but this stock is to be treated a consignment stock.
Is this possible....if yes then how.
Nagesh Murthy.

hi;
This is very much possible. Well a little ABAP help would be needed of course. But this is how it can work....
1. Initially create a contract with the Vendor and let him build stocks and keep them in consignment. The contract itself will be for consignment. So the PO we create must be for consigned stocks.
2. Once the stocks are created in consigned status we can change the availabilty check to refer to the stock status in the consigned level. So getting a Schedule line will not be an issue.
3. Now, when the delivery is created we can trigger an output where in we can consume the stocks. This output would typically trigger a Call Off PO which will consume the stocks from the consigned status for delivering. This will happen only at the System level. Physical good will always be in the Consignment status at the vendor location. Once the Call Off PO is GR'd the stocks comes in to our account and then the PGI is done. To develop this we nee ABAP's help.
4. So all along the Stock is treated as Consignment stock and only at the time of PGI we take it into our account.
Hope this helps. Do let me know if you need further info.
Regards,
Mani.

Consignment sale process

hi gurus,
in consignment sale process we will fill up at customer place after that in consignment issue the material will be issued and we run the cycle as OR-Lf-F2. here how the system know that the material has been issued.
in consignment returns and pick up we run again the OR and LF only, here for the returns process how we do the delivery as well as credit memo.
please help me.
David.

Dear David
For information, there are two types of document types for Consignment fillup process
a) Fillup Process - KB-LF-F8 and
b) Issue Process - KE-LF-F2
In fact in consignment fillup process, we are transferring the goods from FG stores to another warehouse and NOT at customer place, as indicated by you. While making fillup delivery via 631 movement, the stock will be transferred from Unrestricted to "Cust.Consignment". As and when you issue to end customer, you create issue delivery and commercial invoice.
Below is the detailed 4 process of consignment fillup and issue process.
1) Consignment fillup (send materials to customer consignment).
Here you have a consignment fillup order and a consignment fillup delivery.
2) Consignment issue (issue materials from customer consignment to the customer).
Here you have a consignment issue order, consignment issue delivery and a consignment issue invoice. (the flow is very similar to a normal OR flow, but the materials are issued from the consignment stock instead of plant stock unrestricted).
3) Consignment return (return materials from customer ownership to customer consignment).
Here you have a consignment return order, consignment return delivery and a consignment return invoice. (the flow is very similar to a normal RE flow, but the materials are returned to the consignment stock instead of plant stock returns).
4) Consignment pickup (pickup consignment stock and move it to plant stock).
Here you have a consignment pickup order and a consignment pickup delivery.
Note that in consignment fillup and consignment pickup there are no invoices since there is no change of ownership for the materials.

Credit management for consignment sale

Hi,
It is well accepted that in Standard SAP , for consignment sale process credit check is done in Consignment issue level as in this phase material stock is logically got diminished from valuated stock. But business dynamics need some solution with nature of business needs and from that point we need that how the same can be managed with consignment fill up. Consignment fill up is the stage where material is moved from plant gate to reach consignment agent's premises which is geographically may be located far away and this is the phase where user can want the credit check before dispatching more quantity with that of payment have received or with a threshold value of credit limit though the stock is under ownership of plant and that same will be transferred to customer after consignment issue.
now we have configured system in that way, KBN and KEN item category has been configured perfectly as needed(like credit indicator checked for KBN and unchecked for KEN item category).
But the problem is faced like following way.
Suppose I am doing a transaction of delivery against a consignment fill up order with value of 2 Lakh with that much credit limit and after making the delivery it got updated in FD32 open sales value (2 Lakh) which is correct in this context.
Secondly at the time of consignment issue delivery further open sales value is not updated with 2 Lakh which is also correct(as credit check is inactive as it should not be update the open sales value as 4 Lakh)
Lastly when we are preparing the consignment commercial invoice with reference of consignment issue delivery then after posting 2 lakh got updated in receivables in FD32 which is also correct but at the same time open value should be diminished to zero which is not updating and this is wrong as then credit exposure is calculated wrongly for next transaction. so huge value will be accumulated in open sales value for consigmeet agent and the same cannot be rectified by standard program RVKRED77 like normal customers.
So please explore what may be the solution for the same(may be any configuration setting) or if there any another correction program exists.
Regards
Indranil

Dear Mr. Lakhshmipati,
Thanks for your reply.
I need the input to be given that we are running the credit check with update group 000015 . So in this case S066- OEIKW will not update anytime.
As per note 492831 is declaring that for consignment fill up if the credit indicator is active but the table S066 - OEIKW will not update for open sales value in case of consignment fill up
But we have tested that after creation of the delivery against consignment fill up open sales value updated in FD32 (as item category KBN has set as credit active) and the same figure is coming from the table S067 - OLIKW.
But it is not duplicated with creation of the delivery from consignment issue(as for item catefory KEN this check is inactive) and after creation of the commercial invoice receivable got updated but same value should be cleared from S067 - OLIKW.
You can understand the situation.
Now there can be three aspects of it. Please check my points below and suggest if I am wrong.
1. For update group 000015, this table S067 is updated for delivery of fill up in standard SAP but never adjusted in after that and also there is no standard program for correction. So in this case either we have to forcefully update the table (by exit or by program) though it should not be the practice as there may be some inconsistency or we should discard this process.
2. We have to deactivate the credit check at consignment fill up level and to carry with credit check at consignment issue level as in that case under update group 000015 , after creation of commercial invoice posting receivables got updated with modification of open sales value by diminishing that much value.
3. We have to withdraw the credit check for case of consignment agent.
please suggest if any other aspect keeping in mind that we have to try our best to reach the requirement of credit check at consignment fill up stage as material should be blocked for delivery before vehicle starts from factory gate.
with last effort if there is really no way , so we have to go with standard SAP.

Indranil

Difference in partner functions in normal and consignment sales

hi,
What is the major difference in partner functions in normal sales and consignment sales Processing?
regards
prabudh

Dear Prabudh
I dont think there is a difference in normal sales and consignment sales, as for as Partner Functions are concerned. The impact will be on inventory where it will get reduced immediately once you make direct sales whereas it is NOT in consignment process.

Hello guys...
Can anybody tell me the prerequisites of the consingnment sales in point by point manner.
Thanks in advance

Consignment stock process
1.     In the consignment stock process, a business allows stock or materials to sit at the customers site or allows stock that is reserved for the customer to sit at its own site. This is done through an agreement that the customer will sell or consume as many of these materials as he can. Only after the customer has consumed or sold anything will the business issue an invoice. Should the customer not want to sell or consume any more material he informs the business and it returns their stock.
2.     All requirements transferred from consignment sales orders to materials planning are transferred as individual requirements. This occurs regardless of what availability checking group indicator is set on the respective material master.
3.     Consignment stock is monitored in our system by individual customer and material. This consignment quantity is controlled separately from the available stock for standard sales orders. This type of stock is refereed to as SPECIAL STOCK. Other forms of special stock are
RETURNABLE PACKAGING.
4.     Special stock indicators are allowed for a schedule line category only in case of CI and CR and not for CF and CP.
Consignment Fill-Up - CF
1.     The business delivers stock to a customer on consignment. This process is called consignment fill-up. Its uses the document category C (VOV8) and a different number range to treat the consignment sales process different from the standard sales cycle.
2.     The consignment fill-up uses the standard sales document type KB/CF, delivery type LF; no billing document type or invoice is relevant at this stage as fill-up is not considered as a sale.
3.     The item category for consignment fill-up is KBN, (VOV7); schedule line category E1/E0; Movement type (631) is the key that at the time of goods issue, posts the stock into a special consignment category in the delivering plants stock for that particular customer and material.
4.     The most important thing to note at this stage is that CF doesnt have PRICING, BILLING, CREDIT CHECK, COST DETERMINATION, SPECIAL STOCK.
5.     Copy control must be set at item and schedule line levels. And a delivery block could be set for sales document KB (VOV8)
6.     After customising entries, create a consignment fill-up order (VA01 doc.type CF) followed by delivery and goods issue. (no billing is done for fill-up).
7.     VA01(CF) VL01N (DELIVERY LIST) LT03 (TRANSFER ORDER) VL02N (PGI).
8.     Note: No billing is done at this stage.
9.     To view the stock on consignment for this customer go to MB58 or MMBE
10.     An automatic credit check is done on the open items with consignee that is unpaid. But a manual credit check should be done on consignee before every consignment fill up is done.
11.     When a consignment fill up is carried out, the system checks the available quantity of stock in the delivering plant to see if this quantity can be met .when the system proceeds with a consignment issue or consignment pick up, the system checks the stock represented at the customers site to see if there is an available quantity left.
12.     Once the consignment fill up is done, the customer may consume the material or sell them. He then informs us about the number of units consumed.
Consignment Issue CI
1.     In the consignment process, the customer only pays when he sells or consumes the materials. The business issues the sale to consignee via an order type CI (or) KE. This is again a standard sales document type with category C. Delivery type LF, delivery related billing type F2
2.     Order type CI; Standard item category KEN, Schedule line category C1/C0 (which is relevant for delivery); movement type 633.
3.     In case of consignment CI PRICING, COST DETERMINATION, BILLING, CREDIT CHECK, SPECIAL STOCK are taken into consideration.
4.     For consignment special stock indicator is W.
5.     VA01 (CI) VL01N (OUTBOUND DELIVERY YOU CAN DO PGI HERE ITSELF) VF01 for the quantity consumed. (INVOICE F2)
6.     Once PGI is posted, the consumed stock is reflected in the consignment stock, which can viewed either in MB58 or MMBE.
Consignment Return CR
1.     The consignment return is sales process flow that represents faulty materials or the product consumed or sold by the consignee. This process should not be confused with the pick up of materials.
2.     The consignee puts the faulty stock back into the consignment stock and requests either a credit note or free of charge subsequent delivery in return. It is to be noted that faulty items are not returned to main stock at the plant, instead they are returned to the consignment stock to make balanced inward and outward movement of stocks.
3.     The sales document category is H and a returns document should always have different number range for the visibility of returned items.
4.     It is also suggested to promote a special shipping condition for returns process that causes a special shipping point that can used only to process return deliveries. In addition to that, all returns documents can be made to have mandatory reference procedure from the billing document for a clear visibility. (M in case of reference from billing)
5.     Do not forget to assign to reference document in the copying control rules and make sure you select the update document flow in the copying control rules.
6.     sales document type CR; delivery type LR (though the actual stock is added to the consignment stock and not the actual stock in plant, the consignee will call to pick up the unused faulty goods and simply consume the rest of the material, and thus the consignment stock will physically increase); billing type (order related billing relevance in VOV7) RE ; item category KRN ; schedule line category D0 (no MRP and availability check required for stock returns as we are receiving stock back into our plant); movement type 634; special stock indicator W
7.     transaction flow = VA01 (CR) VL01N ( post goods receipt) VA02 (remove the billing block) VF01 (credit for returns)
8.     It is suggested to have a billing block in order to check if the credit is authorised and valid. Thus assign the standard billing block is 08.
Consignment pick-up
1.     The consignment pick-up process is the last and final process linked to the consignment procedure. It is responsible for picking up of faulty material as well as the picking up of excess materials not yet consumed by a consignment issue.
2.     Sales document type CP; document category C; item category KAN; schedule line category F0/F1 ; movement type 632, delivery type LR and no billing is necessary as the ownership of the goods does not change.
3.     Depending on the business type, it may be necessary to have a mandatory reference for a consignment pick-up from a consignment fill-up order, which will restrict all pick ups without proper authorisation.
4.     Indicate document flow in the copy control rules.
5.     Like in any other returns process, a specific returns shipping point is suggested to be determined to bring the goods back from the consignees place to the plant.
6.     No invoice is necessary, as the goods are not changing ownership. The goods issue is the trigger that transfers ownership from the business to the consignment consumer.
7.     The standard schedule line category is F1, where the item is relevant for transfer of requirements and availability check is done on customers consignment.
8.     Transaction flow VA01 (CP) VL01N (PGR) after goods reciept if you proceed to stock overview screen, you will notice that the material available at the customers consignment has decreased by the quantity picked up.

Consignment Sales Configuration

Hi all,
The client has aked for the configuration of Consignment Sales process for a new Sales Organisation which is 1300.
Can anyone tell me the process and steps that are to be followed for the configuration of this Consignment process for a new sales orgn.
Its urgent.
thanks in advance
Sourav

Consignment goods are goods which are stored at the customer location but which are owned by the company. The customer is not obliged to pay for these goods until they remove them from consignment stock. Otherwise, the customer can usually return consignment goods that are not required.
Consignment Fill-Up: Consignment fill-up replenishes the stock at the customer site. Since the goods remain the property of the company, this process is not relevant for pricing and consequently not for invoicing either.
Create a sales order using order type KB.
Enter the required data on the customer, the consignment goods and the delivering plant.
Enter all other relevant data and save the order.
Create a delivery as the subsequent document for this sales order and, after picking has been completed successfully, post goods issue.
The underlying goods movement type is a stock transfer. This ensures that when goods issue is posted, consignment special stock is created for the customer concerned. If special stock of this kind already exists in the delivering plant for this customer, the goods are posted to this special stock.
Order type: KB (document category C: sales order)
Std. Delivery type: LF
Item category: KBN (not relevant for pricing and billing)
Schedule line category: E1 (relevant for deliveries, uses availability check, 631 (GI consignment: lending) to post the stock into a special consignment category in the delivering plants stock for that particular customer and material)
Copy control rules for the sales doc, item category, and schedule line category.
Use trans MB58 or MMBE to check the stock.
In this case, Accounting document is required to be generated only for taxes, as the stock is still the ownership of the company. In the pricing procedure all condition type except for Taxes should be statistical.
Consignment Issue: The Consignment issue enables the customer to withdraw consignment goods from the special stock that are to be used or sold.
Create a sales order using order type KE.
Enter the required data for the customer, the consignment goods and the plant to which the goods are to be returned.
Enter all other relevant data and save the order.
Create a delivery as the subsequent document for this sales order and, after picking has been completed successfully, post goods issue.
The goods are then reduced by the relevant quantity in the special stock assigned to the customer. This goods issue also reduces your total stock.
Invoice the delivery which issues the consignment goods.
Order type: KE (document category C: sales order)
Std. Delivery type: LF
Invoice: F2
Item category: KEN (relevant for pricing and deliver related billing, special stock indicator W, should determine cost too)
Schedule line category: C1 (relevant for deliveries, uses availability check, 633 (GI issue: customer consignment)
In this case, Accounting document is required to be generated only for most of the condition type, as it is being invoiced to end customer.
Consignment returns: proceed as follows: Consignment returns enable your customer to return goods to the consignment stock that has already been issued from it.
Create a sales order using sales order type CR.
Enter the required data on the customer and the consignment goods.
Enter all other relevant data and save the order.
Create a returns delivery for the sales order (the system automatically chooses delivery type LR). The goods issue posting cancels the goods issue posting which was carried out when the consignment goods were issued. This posting records the return of the goods to the plant where goods receipt was carried out.
Create a credit memo for the consignment return you created in Step 1.
Order type: KR (document category H: returns)
Delivery type: LR
Credit for Returns Order type: RE (delivery or order related billing)
Item category: KRN (relevant for pricing and deliver related billing, special stock indicator W
Schedule line category: D0 (relevant for deliveries, no availability check, 634
In this case, Accounting document is required to be generated only for most of the condition type, as it is being returned by the customer & invoicing already done to customer..
Consignment Pick-Up: The company uses consignment pick-up to take back consignment goods that are faulty or excess materials that the customer does not need. This process is not relevant for billing since the goods remain the property of the company.
It may be beneficial to have a mandatory reference such as the consignment fill-up. In addition to it copy control rules can be used to further control it. In the copy control rules indicate the document flow. As the stock is coming back into the warehouse or plant, you can specify a returns shipping point to be automatically determined. No invoice is necessary, as the goods are not changing ownership.
Create a sales order using order type KA.
Enter the required data for the customer, the consignment goods and the plant to which the goods are to be returned.
Enter all other relevant data and save the order.
Create a returns delivery for the sales order (the system automatically chooses delivery type LR). The transaction is completed by the goods issue posting which initiates a transfer posting from the customer's special stock to your plant stock.
Order type: KA (document category C: sales order)
Delivery type: LR
No invoice
Item category: KAN
Schedule line category: F1 (relevant for deliveries, availability check against the stock on the customers consignment, 632 (Consignment pickup)
In this case, Accounting document is required to be generated only for taxes, as the stock is still the ownership of the company. In the pricing procedure all condition type except for Taxes should be statistical, as the stock is being returned from consignment site to plant.

Combination of third party sales and consignment sales.....................

Hi All,
Is it possible to do consignment sale process using third party. That is instead of stock being supplied by the Company a third party supplies the goods directly to the customer but this stock is to be treated a consignment stock.
Is this possible....if yes then how

HI ,
Generally in Third party scenario no Movement type will trigger in SAP. just to create Invoice GR has been posted in SAP, check with MM team is there any Movement type is there to post the Stock to consignment while doing GR.
Movement 631 is Unrestricted to Consignment stock
May be similar kind of movement can be used.
Maintain the third party Item as Consignment fill up item except Billing relevance.
its just work around above explanation.
Other wise whenever Third party order created better to post the Consignment stock with order quantity quantity using user Exit and based on Invoice created u can reduce the quantity, if you want just for reporting purpose.
Thanks,

How to handle consignment sales order process ?

Hi Everyone,
Our customer is running consignment sales to their customer.This means there is a sales order, the shipments are being done. But the ownership of the prodoct is not customer's yet. The products are being stored in customers sub-inventory. But there is any sales invoice yet.
When the products that have been shipped to customer are selled to 3.rd customer, the sales invoice is being created.
How can we handle such scenario in EBS ? Does anyone have a demo script or white paper related with that ?
Thanks in advance.

consignment stock at custom should come thru to APO with category CD. The stock in your plant will have category CC . So i dont see the need to assign a separate category to cons stock @ customer.
Can you please elaborate on your requirement . I believe there is no need to create a separate plant /sublocation for this type of stock. In general the way ATP is calculated is little bit different in R/3 and APO. If you include the consignment stock also in your default stock category group (ST1) in APO and this stock category group is assigned to your location , then the consignement stock will also be considered during ATP calculation. If you have not included consignemt stock as a category in the default category group ST1 (or category group assigned to location) then consignemt stock will not be considered during ATP calculation.
But in R/3 the consignemt stock at customer / stock at subcontractor location will not be considered during ATP calculation. that is the stock at customer (/subcontractor location if you are giving stock to subcontracting vendor) and plant stock are considered as two separate entities in R/3 whereas it is entirely driven by the categories assigned to the category group considered for stock calculation in APO.

Consignment sales commision

in consignment sales how we can settle the commision for special stockist thru business since he tooks the sale and returns

Hi,
By defining a special partner function you can manage all the special stocks under one partner.
It makes sense to use the special stock partner if your customer is using decentralized order processing but manages consignment stock centrally.
Consignment goods which have been entered in a consignment fill-up are always posted to the stock of the special stock partner when goods issue is carried out.If a special stock partner does not exist in the document header, inventory management is carried out using the sold-to party.

Taxes in Consignment Sales

hi SAP Gurus,
Can anyone help me in, how excise and taxes are levied in the 4 different stages of consignment sales.
Normally excise is applicable when the material is moved out of the plant, i.e. consignment fillup, but in this stage no billing is created.
Hence, when and how excise is calculated?
Points will be rewarded.
Thanks in advance,
Surya

Dear Surya
Yes you are absolutely right. Taxes and duties are exempted only in case of exports and will be applicable in case of domestic scenario.
In domestic process, you have to first come to a conclusion as to whether
- you are treating the agent / warehouse as a third party or
- you are treating the agent / warehouse as your own depot
In case of first option, yes you have to levy duty and tax and in case of second one, only duty is applicable and tax is exempted.
thanks

Consignment to consignment sales issue

Hi Experts,
We want to go alive with SAP in one of our subsidiaries.
The sales process with this subsidiary is that we sale to the subsidiary and the subsidiary sales to his customer.
Both sales are consignment, means we bill the subsidiary only after he "sales", and he "sales" only after his customer report the sale from his stock.
Usually with other subsidiaries, which are not in consignment process, we work with regular STO process, and than if the subsidiary sales in consignment to his customer, we use regular fill-up and consignment issue procedures.
Is there a consignment to consignment process in SAP?
If not, what are the options available?
Thanks
Ofer

It seems there is no solution for this in SAP
