Consignment Stock direct from Vendor to Customer

Hello all,
We're have several wholesale customers that are maintained via the consignment inventory process in SAP. We will now be drop shipping finished goods directly from a vendor to these consignment customer locations bypassing the KB sales order life cycle. Can a Purchase Order to a vendor i.e. type NB be used to order stock for a consignment customer? Ideally I would like to place PO for finished goods and when I receive the ASN from the vendor simply receive the finished goods directly into the consignment customers inventory via the 101W movement type. I have the feeling that this may require some configuration so any input would be helpfull. My focus right now is on the PO for the consignment stock.
Thanks!

Hi Mirja,
have you gaines any solution for this issue. I am currently facing the same problem and have no idea how to solve it
Thanks

Selling directly from Vendor consignment

Hi All
How to sell goods directly from vendor consignment ?
I have to build a selling consignment for a retail company.
That company receive garment into vendor consignment stock. One customer can buy some shirts or trousers. In the month, company will issue alot of sale order. At the end month, that company total up consumption and sent to vendor. Vendor issue invoice and that company payment.
My solution like this:
1. Make PO consignment
2. GR into vendor consignment, no FI document here
3. I want to selling directly from vendor consignment, but I can't
Somebody suggested that I have to transfer FG from vendor consignment to another stock before selling. That solution is not suitable because it take more steps and more time, you can take about 10 - 30s per sale order. That company have hundreds of sale order per day, they don't accept that solution.
Please help me selling directly from Vendor consignment
Thanks & Best regards

Hi,
You can use the movement type 231 K , it will directly transfer the goods from Vendor Consignment to the Sales order.
I hope this helps.

Dispatch Instructions for Direct Supply from Vendor to Customer.

Dear Experts,
Our Company is Project Industry. We have implmented SAP ECC 6.0 in 2008 with SD, FI, MM, PP, QM, PS, DMS modules.
In our case 70% Deliveries to customer are from direct dispatch from our vendor to Client. Steps are as follows.
1. Buyer issues PO to vendor for direct dispatch to customer. After readiness of material vendor gives Inspection call to Buyer.
2. Buyer creates inspection notification using T-code QM01.
3. Quality department visit the vendors place, inspect the material & clears the inspection notification.
4. After acceptance of material, Project Execution issues Dispatch instructions to vendor with PO No. & Item details. This is Outside SAP in MS word.
5. Vendor Supplies the material to Customer based on dispatch instructions.l
6. After receipt of dispatch document from vendor, Buyer creates Goods Receipt w.r.t. Purchase order in MIGO. We have Put ABAP check for GR creation to check Accepted Quantity of Inspection notification of that PO line item.
Now our Management wants to Implement above Step No. 4 of creation of dispatch instructions in SAP. At the time of creation dispatch instructions, system shall check if inspection notification is created & allow the creation for accepted PO line item quantity in the notification & only after the inspection notification is closed in SAP . Dispatch instructions should have information such as PO No., Line item no., Material Code, Material Description & quantity to be dispatch, Vendor Name, Project Name.
As per my knowledge in Standard SAP Dispatch Instructions Process is not there.
Request you to give your valuable opinion.

dispatch instructions can be put into a long text at header or item level, just depends if they are item specific or apply to all items of the PO.
if you do this after the initial PO creation, then this is a PO change and you can print the PO changes as an extra message and send to your vendor.
checking if inspection notification is created has to be made via user exit.

RTP from Vendor to Customer

Hi Experts,
We are procuring the Returnable transport packaging from vendor with 501 + M. While delivering the vendor
returnable packaging materials (Special stock - M) to the customer, system throws an error message. Please find
below the details.
1) In MM, procuring the ret. pack material with 501 + M
2) In Sales order, we are using the order type OR with the item category - TAL. (Item Category group of Returnable packaging material is LEIH)
3) Creating Outbound delivery
4) While issuing the material, system throws an error message as "Deficit of stock from URS" This is due to the picking of materials from the URS stock and not from the special stock M.
Please let me know the procedure of issuing vendor returnable trans. packaging material to customer and we need to return the same.

Hi,
Returnable packaging material received from vendor are meant to be returned to vendor after using the contents i.e after using all the raw materials/bought out components contained therein.
As you pointed out, these belong to special stock M.
You receive them in MIGO using 501M and then you have to return them to vendor using 502M.
These are the only movements allowed for such materials.
Whereas, returnable materials with customer are different - they are to be issued to customer along with despatch of FG and they come back to you after that.
The M stock cannot be delivered to customer and vice versa.

Scenario of Import P.O from same material get money from vendor and custome

Hi Experts,
My client is procuring certain material Quantity 10 by Import, As when he recieve the 10 Quantity material he founds 8 Quantity is to be Okay and the other 2 founds to be damaged, As it is import material he cannot return it to import vendor, in this situation he takes the photocopy of the 2 damaged material and get debits from vendor without actual returning to import vendor apart from this the damaged goods he sells for lower price.
So from the same material he gets the money double time one from Vendor and other from Customer.
How to MAP this Scenario in SAP ?
Plaese advice.
Best Regards
Javeed Ahamed

Hi Javeed,
Are u using QM module? If u are using, u can activate quality inspection for this material. You can do 101 movement for total qty i.e. 10 nos.
Then in usage decision, you can accept 8 nos and reject and scrap 2 nos.
If u are not using QM module, u can still post 101 movement for 10 numbers. Then you can screap 2 nos with movement type 551.
Hope this will resolve ur problem.

Vendor Consignment stock or vendor managed stock

Dear All,
My client wants to manage vendor consignment stock.
Vendor will be given a area and vendor will keep the stock in his area. Based on the plan he will supply the stock.
the GR for rawmaterials will be made on the consumption report given by the production person. This activity will happen next day only. i will do the GR only to the quantity consumed.
for example if i consumed 100 qty, i will do GR only for 100 and vendor will issue invoice for 100. But when the vendor issue the stock, he will raise a excise invoice based on which i have to take excise credit. I want to know how to do the same.
secondly, i take credit for 100 qty, but actual consumption is 95 only, how do i reverse the 5 only excise invoice.
regards
ranga

No, it is possible to sell from vendor consignment stock directly and I have done it in ECC 6.0 (not IS-retail).
- Pls refer the note 607604.
- Establish the 'stock determination rule' in MM -> Inventory Management -> Stock Determination.
- You need to assign it to the material (MRP3 view) or assign it to item-ategory.
- DONOT mark the special stock indicator in item-category used in SD (e.g. TAN) with 'K'..I did this mistake and wasted some time. If you do, it will ask you to populate the Vendor field in the Delivery which is not available and you may get stuck up because of that.
This should make it work.
Pls award points if you find this information useful.

Consignment Stock (Purchase)

Hi All,
I am looking for an add-on for Consignment Stock management from Purchase perpective (not from Sales Perspective).
Please advise if there in any available solution in this direction.
Best Regards,
Nitin

I believe the account assignment K indicates that the finished goods are vendor consignment inventory as opposed to customer consignment inventory. When I create the line items in the PO with K as my assignment K I'm still only indicating a plant and storage location to receive the inventory as opposed to a customer designation. Again I believe this is for vendor consignment. I'm looking to issue a PO for consignment inventory to be shipped to a consignment customer location. Any other help is much appreciated.

Stock Transport Order (STO) for Consignment Stock

I have a business process that need a STO of Consignment Stock material process.

Plant A need 5 pcs of material XYZ from Plant B.
The requirement is to allocate 5 qty in delivery as below:
3 PCs picked from Unrestricted Stock (priority to allocate from unrest.stock first)
2 PCs picked from Consignment Stock (second priority)
How can we do STO Plant to Plant for Consignment (from Vendor) Stock material like I mention above ?
Regards,

Hi ...
Sorry .. I have to inform the requirement details ..
The requirement is "without make it as own stock, so the material consignment stock directly transport from Plant A to Plant B using delivery process as STO standard process"
Is there any best practice to do this ?

Sell material directly to Vendor????

My requirement is We would like to sell material directly from vendor, I mean I would like to buy it of course, but to deliver it directly from my vendor to my customer. Do you have any concept how to handle the situation, cause in normal way I should have goods receipt, goods issue, and of course invoice postings, etc.

In third-party order processing, your company does not deliver the items requested by a customer. Instead, you pass the order along to a third-party vendor who then ships the goods directly to the customer and bills you. A sales order may consist partly or wholly of third-party items. Occasionally, you may need to let a vendor deliver items you would normally deliver yourself.
The processing of third-party orders is controlled via material types. Material types define whether a material is produced only internally, can be ordered only from third-party vendors, or whether both are possible. For example, a material that is defined as a trading good can only be ordered from a third-party vendor. However, if you manufacture your own finished products, you may also want, from time to time, to be able to order the same type of product from other vendors.

Need to understand and review the implications of how consignment stock are

Need to understand and review the implications of how consignment stock are managed in SAP - both from a material issue and from a costing perspective

Hi,
Consignment Stock means your Vendor stores there material in your company premises(It remains the property of the supplier until it is actually used or consumed, when ever you want you can use it for consumption as per your requirement. Unless you consumed, It is regarded as non -valuated stock.
Goods receipts into your consignment stock with or without reference to a purchase order can be done. The vendors consignment price for a material must be determined before you post the goods receipt. A goods receipt to consignment stock does not change the valuated stock quantity, since the material still belongs to the vendor.
The steps for Consignment Process are:
1. Consignment info record(ME11),
2.Souce List(ME01)
3.PO with item category K( ME21N)
4.GR WRT to PO (stock will be shown as material provided by Vendor)
5.Consuption Posting (Creates Invoice automatically)
6.Invoice Verification in MRKO.
7.Payment to vendor(F-53)
The account entries in GR,GI and IR are as follow;
Goods Receipt:
No Accounting Documents
Goods Issues:
Consumption A/C: DR,
Consignment(Liability Account ) Payable: CR,
Consignment Settlement:
Consignment (Liability Account )Payable: DR,
Vendor Account A/C: CR

Consignment Stock Transfer

Hi,
I need to move stock from one customer (consignment) stock to another customer (consignment) location within the same plant. Can you please explain how to do this?
Thanks

Hi,
I have researched for this requirement, before. Not successful. There is no possibility of transferring customer consignment stock to another customer consignment stock in standard SAP. If this is possible, solution is ready on hand.
Option:1
Transfer customer consignment stock to own first and then do the transfer to second customer consignment stock. This can be tried in user exit. Such movement type can be assigned to the special "Schedule Line Category" that can be used by changing manually in the consignment fillup order for the second customer.
All this is worth looking at, if at all both the customers are in the same premises. Otherwise, a paper document is required to accompany the delivery. It is possible via consignment fillup order (SD). So, if you wish to move consignment stock from one customer to another, without consignment fillup order, it is not possible. If at all you want to pick from first customer's consignment stock to PGI to second customer order, you would need to create such a movement type which can do this sort of posting. I have researched a lot on this but didn't see any possibility.
Not sure, if it helps!

How can i clear the vendor and customer open line items at a time same vendor as a customer of the company (same vendor same customer and equal invoices )

my vendor and customer are same . purchase invoice due100000 and sales invoice amount is also 100000 at a time with any manual action , have any setting for cleared both vendor and customer line items at a time ...........

X Ltd. will be Vendor & Customer.
Purchase Invoice is booked under Vendor SAP number & Sales Invoice is booked under Customer SAP number. Then you can transfer amount from Vendor to Customer or vice versa with T-code F-04.
Then if you have transferred amount from customer to Vendor (F-04), Vendor account will have two entries Debit & Credit. Then go for clearance with T-code F-44 clear Vendor.
