Customer consignment stock/ customer owned stock

Hi
Anyone who have a great idea how to handle customer owned stock, systemwise in SAP?
If a serviceorder is required, and we need to settle this against the balance.
Step by step.

Why you are using 631, if u want a PGI , goods issue cust consignment use movement type 633 . The system will take your Stock CR and COGS + (maintain Gl acct for acct modifier VAX )

Request for help on Vendor Consignment stock and Customer Consignment Stock

HI Experts,
We have a requirement to segregate the Customer Consignment stock and Vendor consignment stock from the total Consignment stock available in the BW report.
Currently in the report the calculation of total consignment stock is based up on Issued consignment stock and Received consignment stock .
The calculations of the Issued and Received consignments stocks are specified below.
Issued consignment Stock
The below following parameters are checked when the quantity is considered as Issued consignment Stock
Transaction or Process keys : 100, 101, 104, 105, 106, 110
Application    :   MM
Stock relevance : 1
Adding to the above conditions,
u2022     When the stock category is u2018Ku2019, the Quantity in Base Unit of Measure is assigned to Issued Consignment Stock. or
u2022     When the stock category is blank and the stock type is u2018Eu2019 or u2018Ku2019 or u2018Lu2019 then also the Quantity in Base Unit of Measure is assigned to Issued Consignment Stock.
Received Consignment Stock :
The below following parameters are checked when the quantity is considered as Issued consignment Stock
Transaction or Process keys : 000, 001, 004, 005, 006, 010
Application    :   MM
Stock relevance : 1
Adding to the above conditions,
u2022     When the stock category is u2018Ku2019, the Quantity in Base Unit of Measure is assigned to Received Consignment Stock. or
u2022     When the stock category is blank and the stock type is u2018Eu2019 or u2018Ku2019 or u2018Lu2019 then also the Quantity in Base Unit of Measure is assigned to Received Consignment Stock
Only stock category and stock type are available in the BW report for determining the type of consignment stock . So, with respect to stock category and stock type, could you please kindly advise if it is possible to determine the Customer consignment stock and Vendor consignment stock in the report
Thanks a lot
Warm Regards,

Movement Type from Customer owned Stock back to Plant Stock

Hi Guru's,
Is there a Mov. Type that allows you to transfer from Customer owned Stock back to Plant Stock, without creating any FI Documents? Please help thanks in advance Carlo

What is customer owned stock?
from my point of view it is any stock that you and others sold to this customer. not in your system at all.
If you want to get it back to your promises, then you have to create a customer return.
The customer return goes into return stock, this does not create any financial postings.
But if you transfer the retun stock into own stock, then you create an accounting doc with value (quantity * price / price unit)
You cannot create stock for a valuated material without any financial document

Transfer Cost center stock into Own

Dear all,
Material procured against cost center and GRN made accordingly (Cost center). Out of these stocks partial goods issues also done.
Now the remaining stock (showing in cost center) want to take into own stocks i.e Cost center stock to Own stock. Please suggest the steps and movement types doing this and any accounting related issues to take care while transferring these type stocks??
Regads,

are u saying that the material procured via po with accoutn assignement cost center and it is stored in sloc
i afraid this is not possible as at the time of gr system will hit the consumption account and goods are considered to be consumed so there is no question of stock avilabe for accoutn assigned po that is for the cost center
and if in any case u are able to do so then do the materia to material transfer via tocde mb1b and movmeent type 309
but in that case u need to creata material master with same material type and valuation calss as that ofcost center material

PGI using Stock with Special Stock Indicator "E". (STO)

Hi,
We are in the process of creating Stock Transfer.
While doing PGI the System is displaying the following message:
Only 0 EA of material 1103DGC22LB 08062009 available
When we executed T Code MMBE, we found the Stock exits with Special Stock Indicator "E".
Is it possible to do the PGI using Stock with Special Stock Indicator "E"?
Or what would be best possible to handle this situation.
Please guide.
Regards,
PK

If the stock has special stock indicator E. then you can see this in MMBe as Sales Order stock. If you dispaly the details, then you can see the Sales Order number and item for which the stock is assigned. Unless there is some reason that you want to take this stock from the sales order (for example the sales order is to be rejected), then you shouldn't take this stock as you will be unable to fullfill the sales order. If you want ot borrow the stock, then you could do a transfer as advised by previous person from sales order stock to own stock and after you get replacement stock transfer some back to sales order stock, to fullfill the order. If you are using MTO then you could also create a new production order assigned to the sales order to make the stock in the special stock segment.

Customer consignment from vendor consignment stocks

Hello Experts,
I am working on the below scenario,
The stocks in vendor consignment are used for customer consignment. I believe in standard we need to bring the vendor consignment stocks to company's unrestriced to do the post goods issue. Is there any work around for this solution so that the visibility of stocks still be on vendor consignment ? If so how would the posting when material document is created? Remember that, only after the customer consumes it, I will raise a PO and GR to bring to my own stock and then bill the customer.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Suhail Shaik

Hi,
The difference here is the stocks are already lying as vendor consignment stocks in our location and We are using it for customer consignment. Vendor doesnt supply to the customer directly.
Thanks,
Suhail Shaik

InterCompany Customer Consignment stock with Valuated

Hi
Any one help me in understanding the Customer Consignment Process.
First a normal consignment Process with Valuated Stock
Second thing We need to move the Goods from one Company to another Company directly to Customer Consignment Valuated Stock. Please Give the full Process Step with the detailed Transaction . A has the SO .The stocks are Available in B Company .We need to Move the Stock from one company to direct consignment.
Any help will be highly appreciated .
Thanks
Jeevan

Hi Nick,
1. Go through Consignment Stock Processing
Purpose
Consignment goods are goods which are stored at the customer location but which are owned by your 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 which are not required.
Consignment processing offers the participating partners several advantages. Customers store the consignment goods at their own warehouses. The customer can access the goods in the consignment warehouse at any time. They are only billed for the goods when they are removed from the warehouse and only for the actual quantity taken.
Since consignment stocks still form part of your valuated stock, you must manage this stock in your system.
However, consignment stock must be
Managed separately from the rest of your stock so that you know exactly what stock is stored at the customer location
Managed separately for each customer
In inventory management, the consignment stock is managed as special stock in your inventory and is assigned to specific customers. This enables you to keep track of returnable packaging stock by customer.
If the consignment stocks are not managed by the sold-to party but by a central office, you can use the partner function for special stock partner.
Prerequisites
Special Stock Partner
The special stock partner has been defined for carrying out consignment stock processing by means of a third party rather than the customer. This means you can manage all special stock 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.
Inventory Management Using the Special Stock Partner
If you want to process your consignment goods using a special stock partner, proceed as follows:
Create a customer master record for the special stock partner (account groups 0001 and DEBI are defined for this purpose in the standard system).
Enter the special stock partner in the relevant customer master record on the partner screen using the partner function SB.
When you create an order for this customer, the system automatically proposes the partner function SB in the document header and the document items. 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. You can also enter the partner function SB manually in the document header or in the relevant items if a special stock partner is required and is not proposed from the customer master record. If a special stock partner does not exist in the document header, inventory management is carried out using the sold-to party.
Process Flow
There are four main transactions for processing consignment stock in the R/3 System, all of which support separate management of stock:
Consignment fill-up
Consignment fill up is used to supplement the customers consignment stock.
Goods issue of the appropriate stock is posted from the unrestricted-use stock to consignment stock (special stock). The goods remain in the possession of the vendor.
When you ship consignment stock to the customer, you record the transaction by creating a consignment fill-up order (order type KB). As a result, the system carries out the following actions:
If special stock does not yet exist in your inventory for the customer (or special stock partner), the system creates it when goods issue is posted
The relevant quantity is removed from regular inventory in your plant and is added to the special stock for the customer. The total valuated stock for the plant remains the same.
The transaction is not relevant for pricing since the consignment stock remains the property of your company.
Consignment pick-up
Consignment issue enables the customer to take consignment goods from the special stock for their use or to sell.
Consignment issue involves removing the goods from the special stock and making it the property of the customer.
When the customer removes consignment stock to use or sell, you record the transaction in the system by creating a consignment issue order (order type KE). As a result, the system carries out the following actions:
When goods issue is posted, the relevant quantity is deducted from both the customers special stock and your own total valuated stock.
The transaction is relevant for pricing since the goods now become the property of the customer.
Consignment issue
Any consignment goods stored at the customers warehouse that havent been used can be reposted to your companys warehouse with a consignment pick-up.
If the customer returns consignment stock to you, you record the transaction in the system by creating a consignment pick-up order (order type KA). As a result, the system carries out the following actions:
When goods issue is posted, the relevant quantity is deducted from the customers special stock and is added back into your regular stock at the plant where the goods are returned. Your total valuated stock remains the same since the returned stock was regarded as part of your own inventory even while it was at the customers premises.
This transaction is not relevant for billing.
Consignment return
Consignment returns are used for when your customer wants to return goods to the consignment stock.
If the customer wishes to claim on consignment goods which have already been issued, you can record this transaction by creating a consignment return order (order type KR). As a result, the system carries out the following actions:
When goods issue is posted, the relevant quantity is added to the customers special stock at the plant where the goods are returned
Since the ownership of the goods is passed from the customer back to your company, the transaction is relevant for billing. In this case, the customer receives a credit memo for the returned goods.
Depending on the settings in Customizing for Sales, you can create consignment returns with direct reference to a consignment issue. The consignment issue appears in the document flow for the consignment return. This function is not supported in the standard version of the SAP R/3 System.
When you create consignment returns in the standard version of the SAP R/3 System, the system automatically sets a billing block. To credit a return, you must first approve the request for a credit memo by removing the billing block in the return header. You can control the automatic setting of a billing block in Customizing for Sales.
The following order types used in the standard system for processing consignments:
Transaction
Sales order type
Consignment fill-up
KB
Consignment issue
KE
Consignment pick-up
KA
Consignment return
KR
Pricing and Availability Check
Whether pricing is carried out for the individual transactions depends on the item category. The schedule line category controls the availability check and the transfer of requirements in each of the transactions. The schedule line category itself is determined by the item category and the MRP type of the material. The order types KE and KA check against the consignment stock for the customer involved and order type KB checks against your own plant stock. Requirement records for consignment stock are stored as individual requirements, independently of the setting in the material master record.
2. You can sell the products to the same customer through other sales areas with configuration of common divisions and distribution channels.
3. Go through the IMG settings Sales and distribution --> billing ---> Inter company billing
I hope It will give you some Idea,
Regards,
Murali.

Good Receipt to Customer Consignment Stock

Dear all,
I would like to know if it is possible to do good receipt to customer consignment stock in SAP?
For normal case:
1) create PO
2) Good receipt to own plant
3) Create Consignment Fill up Order
4) Create Delivery
5) PGI to customer consignment stock.
However, now I have a case that, the vendor directly ship the goods to the consignment customer without going to my own plant. i.e.:
1) create PO
2) Good receipt at customer consignment stock.
How can I implement this in SAP?
Please kindly advise. Thank you.
Best regards,
Chris

Hi!!
Your case is a Third Party Scenario. Where the customer raises a PO to your organisation and you arrnge for the material from your VENDOR.
Process flow as under:
The Purchase requisition hits from the sales order (item category TAS),
The Purchase order forwarded to vendor.
MIGO against the PO (after receipt of material at customer site) is done where the stock do not affect your inventory. MIRO is done for valuation.
The Invoice for the customer is done with reference to the sales order.
The payment to vendor is released based on the MIGO / MIRO.
Should there be any clariication needed, please do communicate.

Movement type to consume customer consignment stock in the delivery plant ?

Need MM Functional expertise help to resolve the issue
They are two plants associated
1. Deliverying Plant (Customer Consignment Stock) ---> FPP
2. Recieving Plant (Vendor Consignment Stock) ---> FNT
Recieving Plant (FNT) will send a consignment Purchase Order (P0) to the delivery plant (FPP), which
inturn delivery plant FPP will do post goods Issue (PGI) with movement type 635 {635 --> moves
the stock from sloc 1000 to customer consignment stock}
Once movement type 635 is completed, it will go customer consignment stock in the delivery plant FPP
So Far OK..
Recieving plant (FNT) will recieve the stock against movement type 101K into Consignment location, followed
by movement type 411k (to move the stock from consignment location to OWN location). Once its under OWN location,
the inventory can be utilized for service orders (261)
Issue:
Not able to find a movement type to consume customer consignment stock in the delivery plant FPP
Note: 1. 411k is used to consume vendor consignment stock
2. Both plants are in different company codes
Following OSS notes has been checked, but none is addressing the issue
1. 520024
2. 610896
3. 362032
4. 13006

Customer consignment stock is consumed physically by a customer, the customer reports to you how much he has consumed, the delivering plant creates then a consignment order for consignment issue in the delivering plant, followed by converting it to a delivery and posting goods issue.

Return of customer consignment stock

Dear all,
If, in the standard SAP system, a return delivery from customer consignment stock is done (sales doc: KA, Mvt: 632) the goods are moved to the unrestricted stock.
This isn't a very good solution, as the users often forget to move the goods to blocked stock (after good receipte from consignment stock) and then, theses goods are included into the MRP Run.
How do you handle returns from consignment stock? Do you have a 'One - Step' solution (consignment customer stock --> blocked stock) in place? If yes, could you please explain me the process you are using?
Do you know why SAP did not implemented the direct movement to blocked stock?
Thank you for your help.
Best regards,
Thomas

Hi
It is not possible to post to blocked stock as 632 movement is actually reversal of 631 movement.
631 movement transfer stock from 'unrestricted' to 'customer consignment' .
Business standards will always be to send to 'customer consignment' from unrestricted stock only.
Nobody will ask for sending from 'blocked' to 'customer consignment' and hence SAP did not provide for the same. So reverse also could not be found to put the same to blocked.
Why don't you type below movement type for requirement.
655---goes to QI inspection straight away (you can move them back to unrestricted t code MB1B with movement type 321)
or
657----blocked stocks (you can move them back to unrestricted t code MB1B with movement type 343)

THird Party PO Scenario - GR into Customer Consignment Stock

HI,
In a Third party scenario, is there any possible way to post the GR into Customer consignment stock ?!
In std SAP,
PR is generated from Sales order and the PO is created w.r.to the PR.
PR & PO will have the acct assignment ( sales order) and item category (third party).
during GR, we can't see the stock in the system. because the GR is statistical one since the stock is directly deliverd at customer place.
But in the current world in our case,
the stock is delivered in an external warehouse, from where the goods will be delivered to customer at a later point.
we want to track the stock in external warehouse. so, we want to have this as the "customer consignment stock". ( we may have this as a SLOC and from there we can transfer to customer consignment stock. but there will not be any link for the sales order and this customer consignment stock and moreover during GR we are not updating the stock...)
SO here is the question,
how can we update the stock during GR for Third party order( as far as I know, we can't define new item category).
If we are updating the stock during GR for 3rd party, then we may find a way to post it to the customer consignment....
Pls share your ideas..thanks.

Third Party Consignment? Anyone have an answer? I have the same requirement

Customer consignment stock- REPORTING stock level & goods depatched

Hi all
I'm looking for a report (or reports) which shows the following (bare in mind that this will all be customer consignment stock):
- the delivery numbers
- the previous month's stock level
- the quantity of goods despatched the following month with a rolling calculation
- monthly invoice values
- remaining stock levels (after current months goods have been issued and invoiced)
I'm aware that MMBE/ MB58 shows the current stock levels, however I'm hoping there is a report in SE16 which shows it as a report structure.
I understand that this is a lot of info requested by myself however any information would be appreciated.
Thanks
/ Vicky

Dear tortyv,
As per my understanding of the requirement,
You please check the "VL06" report if it satisfies your requirement you enter the execution parameters and execute.
System will give the list of out bound deliveries. Select one of those and click the details icon (ctrlshiftf3) according to the item view or headder view.
If it does't suit you have to go for z report.
I f you want that please provide the input fields in order to fetch the required data for the report.
Thanks&Regards

In my current scenario the only stock i have is customer owned (special stock cat B) and i want to create a Subcontracting PO AND an outbound delivery using the customer owned stock,
Any help in how to do this would be appreciated

Negative values on customer consignment stock

Hello,
Is it possible to have negative values on customer consignment stock?
i.e. the same material is sent to a customer, as consignment stock
(special stock W), from different plants. If the material is not used
by the customer (then it has not been billed, as it is on consignment),
the customer can return all that stock to only one plant. This means
that the overall stock for that material on customer consignment will
be cero, but the standard SAP does not allow to return to one plant
more quantity than what it was originally sent from that plant.
Is there a possible workaround to this situation?
Thank you.

maybe that you sold more pieces than you had, and the material master allows negative stock on the plant/storage location.
pls. reward points if helpful
regards
Roberto

Subcontracting Process with Customer owned stock

We are looking for SAP supported process where the customer sends us components along with a sales order for a finished good. The components have to be received into customer owned stock and will be used (for instance as part of the BOM) to produce the finished good ordered by the customer.
Does anybody have a solution for this process within SAP?

Hi,
1. Define your customer materials (both component and finished product) as non valuated material, because these materials not effecting the our inventory.
2. create Bom for finished product.
3. Create sales order for service charges with reference to your customer PO.
4. Receive the component from your customer through 501 E (with out po sales order specific).
5. Create Production order with reference to sales order through MRP or manual.
6. confirm the production order and receive the
finished product.
7. Delivery to customer as in normal sales process.
8. Then create performa invoice or billing to your customer.
You can follow the above process, if have any further quarry please let me know.
