Sell vendor stock (Consignment fill-up) to clients

Dear mates,
I have a complicated business requirement. I have special stock(K) of vendor consignment (for sample X ) and I want to sell this stock to a client (for sample Y).
I looking for this scenario in a lot of forums but i do not get any answer or solution.
Anyone have some idea to do it?
Regards and thanks a lot,
Isaac

Dear Isaac,
System should convert vendor stock into unrestricted stock (Business owned) in back end and then posts the goods issue (Mvt Type 601) for the sales order created for customer at the time of PGI .
From FICO side a new line item will be created against vendor payments.
Business clears the vendor payment through standard vendor payment process.
Just think whether this idea may of any help for you.....

Using Consignment Stock and filling up an unrelated Sales Order

Hi there,
Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere, but I have an issue that I hoped SCN may be able to resolve.
We have a client for whom we hold Stock in our warehouse location. We fill up this stock using SAP Sales Orders (at 0 revenue) to maintain levels to satisfy need.
When the client puts in a stock request, they do so using our front end quoting engine which is integrated with SAP, and effectively drives the client invoice. This sends through picking and shipping requests to our warehouse who immediately action the stock holding to satisfy the request, creating Outbounds against the stocking order(s).
At a later stage the quoting engine creates a Sales Quotation in SAP which is then converted to a Sales Order. In order to reconcile the Order and the shipments, the Stock Order Outbounds are then reversed, and re-issued against this new (unrelated) Sales Order, and then we can move to invoice.
Step by Step, the process broadly looks as follows:
- Order Stock via 'Sales Order (1)'
- Pick and Deliver Stock (Outbounds are created against Stock 'Sales Order (1)')
- Process the client request and create 'Invoice Sales Order (2)'
- Reverse the Outbounds against Stock 'Sales Order (1)' and link these to 'Invoice Sales Order (2)'.
- Process to Invoice.
I am trying to determine if there is a more efficient means of processing this requirement, and whether consignment stock can help us here. From what I have read, I am assuming that for consignment stock a saleable YKE can only be created against an existing YKB. For the model that we are trying to operate, ideally we need a solution where we can Associate the YKB items to YOR, or perhaps achieve the following:
- Order Stock via 'Sales Order (1)'
- Move this Stock into a "Bucket"
- Pick and Delivery this stock out of the "Bucket"
- Transfer the delivery over to the 'Invoice Sales Order (2)' when required.
I'd welcome any suggestions here to helps us optimise the process.
Many thanks,
Alexander.

Hi Alexander ,
Yes ofcourse you can use consignmentment Process
and you can use the concept of special stock partner in the partner profile
Spoecial stock partner (SB) can assign to your ship to party
1stly you can do consignment fill up( with your customer name (ex-2316)
then at the time of creating the consignment issue parter function use 2361 customer

Excise Transaction Type for consignment fill up / stock transfer

Hi
When i post excise invoice on account of removal due to sales (through J1IIN), SAP pulls uses DLFC excise transaction type. Following entry is posted at the time of J1IIN:
Excise Duty paid A/c.. Dr
   To Excise Duty payable (Basic + ECess + SHEC)
My requirement is, when i post excise invoice on account of removal due to consignment or stock transfer, SAP should pass following entry:
Excise Duty paid on consignment A/c.. Dr
   To Excise Duty payable (Basic + ECess + SHEC)
Excise Duty paid on stock transfer A/c.. Dr
   To Excise Duty payable (Basic + ECess + SHEC)
For this, i will have to create different GL accounts and assign it to "CENVAT SUSPENSE" in excise transaction type table.
But i does not know which excise transaction type does SAP uses for consignment fill up and stock transfer. Please suggest.

1.basic settings-create subtransaction type.
create subtransaction type
cf-consignment fillup
st-stock transfer
2.account determination- Specify Excise Accounts per Excise Transaction
copy DLFC and name it as DLFC and cf and also st.
3.account determination-Specify G/L Accounts per Excise Transaction
copy dlfc and maintain DLFC and subtransaction type cf and also st.
change the gl account for cenvat suspense for st and cf combination.

Credit Limit should be consumed in consignment fill up

Hi
We a consignment sale scenario. We send some goods to our consignment agent. These agents are created as customers in SAP.
When i do consignment fill up (i.e. when i send goods from my stores to consignment agent), there is no FI accounting entry posted in SAP.
My client requires that, my credit limit should get used at the time of consignment fill up itself.
As far as i have worked on credit management, credit limit is used when customer A/c, is debited. But in above scenario, there is no debit to consignment agent account.
Please suggest how to handle this scenario.

Hi Meenu,
Credit limit for consignment fill up is not standard requirement,because the owner ship of the material is still with you.Credit limit
can be triggered at consignment issue,where the owner ship of the material is changing.
System didn't consider at fill up due to the special stock indicator at VOV7 for item category.

Consignment Fill up Process(with Bebit and credit entries)

Hi all,
I want to do following entries in consignmen Fillup process.
1)consignmen Fillup:-
Goods on sale consignee Cr.
Consignment Agent Dr.
since proforma invoice is gets created in Fill up process, shall i configure cmercial invoice instead of Proforma?
Reg,
amol

shall i configure cmercial invoice instead of Proforma?
Before answering this question, I would like you to answer to the following
a) What do you mean by consignment fill-up
b) Under what circumstances, you can raise a commercial invoice
If you know answer to the above questions, posting this thread would not have arised.
Anyway, my explanation goes here
Consignment fill up is nothing but you move your own stock from one place to another place. Once you moved the stock, that stock will be earmarked for the end customer and it cannot be diverted to another customer. Now tell me, for moving the stock from one place to another, will you generate commercial invoice ??
You can very well put these questions with your client so that you will find a solution.

Consignment Fill up order to be cancelled

Dear Friends,
My client had issues a Consignment Fill up order, and goods were sent to the Agent. But in between truck met with an accident and goods came back to the factory.
In this case, where goods are not reached to the Customer as part of the consignment fill, what should we do?
Should we create Consignment returns with reference to the Consignment Fill up OR Cancel the the Fill up order???
Please assist.
Regards
Trupti Deulkar

Hello Trupti,
If the stock which is transfered to customer consignment via fill up order is lying in customer consginment in stpck overview, then it makes sense to create consignment pick up order, ( which is transferring the stock from consignment back to plant stock unrestricted use.
You need to create consignment pick up order (KA- Order type), with item category as KAN. This wil pick up movement type 632 and stock can be taken back in unrestricted use.
As consignment fill up is not relevant for billing/ invoicing, so as like consignment pick up which is alos relevant for billing.
I forgot to add, nit to go for consignment return, as it is relevant for billing, whereas you have just managed to fill the customer consignment stock via fill order ( mvt type 631), but still the owner ship lies with you, as cosnisgnment fill up is also relevant for biling.
Easy solution is to go for consignment pick up order.

Consignment Fill up vallid for accounting document

Hello,
I want to create accounting document during Goods issue in Consignmentt Fill up.
Actually We want to bill customer at time of consignment fill up.
Please suggest for required settings for the same.
Regards
Amit

Dear Amit
Conceptually and Practically also consignment fill up order is not supported with commercial billing and when the consigement fill up stocks move out of a manufacturing plant to make excise invoice we create proforma invoice in consignment fill up and proforma invoice doesnot update or impact accounting
Hope this clarifies your doubt
If you sell a customer a material A on consignment fill up say 100 units that means you are keeping your valuated stocks at his premises thinking that he will use that and so that we can make sale
This is consignment fill up no commercial invoice the ownnership belongs to us
If he takes 50 units out of this then it is Consignment issue this is supported by commercial billing as we make a sale here
The balance 50 units is taken thro Consignment pickup again there is no commercial billing here as we take back our stocks only no sale
Suppose after some time the customer returns 5 units which was sold thro Consignment issue then it is Consignment returns which is supported with commercial billing as we give credit memo for that 5 units

Direct Drop Shipment for Consignement fill Up.

I am trying to Map a business Process for Cross Company Consignment fill-up.Company A receive Sales Order..On Receipt of Order,Company A placed Stock Transport Order to Company B.Company B will ask his Vendor to hand over the material as Consignment .I am facing some problem with this Process. Can any one share his experience in the Consignment Process?
Thanks

Hi,
u have misudnerstood the process. It is actually 3rd pary sales..follow these steps
Process Flow for 3rd Party Sales
Customize the third party sales in summary:
1. Create Vendor XK01
2. Create Material Material Type as "Trading Goods". Item category group as "BANS".
3. Assign Item Category TAS to Order type that you are going to use.
4. A sale order is created and when saved a PR is generated at the background
5. With reference to SO a PO is created (ME21N). The company raises PO to the vendor.
6. Vendor delivers the goods and raises bill to company. MM receives the invoice MIRO
7. Goods receipt MIGO
8. Goods issue
9. The item cat TAS or Schedule line cat CS is not relevant for delivery which is evident from the config and,   therefore, there is no delivery process attached in the whole process of Third party sales.

PO Number Check on an Inter-Company Consignment Fill-up Order

Hi Gurus,
I am working on an Inter-Company Consignment Fillup Scenario. When i create an order in CRM the order is error free. Upon replication i get an error. The error message is
Purchase order "TEST PO" does not exist in the system (see long text) (Notification E V1 583) - TEST PO is the PO entered.
The requirement is to enter any PO and ECC should not check if a Purchase Order exists for the PO entered in ECC.
This was working before we applied support packs in our environment 10 days back.
Well we do not create orders in ECC, if i try to create one in ECC the error is
Purchase order Test PO does not exist in the system
Message no. V1583
Diagnosis
You are creating an order for a consolidated company and must eliminate internal business volume. For this reason, the system tries to determine if the related purchase order exists. This is not the case, however.
Procedure
Enter the relevant purchase order number
Thanks,
Kiran AV

Hi
A warehouse can contain stocks owned by variousconsignment vendors. Settlement is based on the
material withdrawn from the consignment stock.As a result, Inventory Management and Invoice
Verification must fulfill special requirements.To support the procurement process for consignment
material, you can define conditions for consignment processing that are valid for specific periods. You
can enter these conditions in foreign currencies and include alternative units of mea-sure. For inventory
postings (for example, postings made for deliveries, good issues, confirmations for run schedule headers) and in the relevant preparatory phases, the system can suggest the stocks from which to withdraw material. In the strategies used for stock selection, you can have the system take both your
companys own stock as well as the vendor consi gnment stock into consideration.The R/3 System provides enhanced functionality for settling consignment liabilities. To make the process more transparent to the vendor, you can create consignment settlement documents and send them
to the vendor.

How to back date for schedule line date of Consignment Fill-Up

Hi,
There are available stock for the material used. In VA01 of order type KB - Consignment Fill-up, I put in a backdated schedule line date (example: 09.09.2008). However, the system automatically proposed a new schedule line date of today's date (example: 13.10.2008).
How can I remain the backdated date with confirmed qty instead of today's date?
Thanks.

Hi Wooi Ling
when system is not able to confirm the schedule lines, the system would give a proposal date on which the requirement can be met.
in this case ,you can do one thing , you can set the indicator " Fix date and quantity " in the item schedule line. this would fix the date and the quantity for delivery and the schedules lines.
this would also mean the customer accepts the delivery and quantity confirmed by the system, The system then passes on MRP requirements so that the confirmed date and quantity can be met.
hope this helps
thanks

Plants Abroad set up for consignment fill up

Hi,
We have scenario for Plants Abroad. There will be Consignment fill up process within EU from country to other.
There is need for VAT posting in Proforma Invoice for Consignment Fill up.
I would appriciate if any one let me know how Pricing can be set up,Will that tax posting (if we take MWST condition type) will be nullify with another tax condition.
Is there any documents or white paper avaialable for Plants Abroad -Consignment Fill up scenario for Pricing set up.
Looking forward for response asap.Thanks.

Hi Akshay
You can use consignment process as available in Std SAP. If u dont want to VAT postings to be updated till material is sold then u can have different account key and can post tax amount to intermediate account such as VAT payable and then at the time of consignment issue u can have different account key and can update actual tax account .
consult with your FI collegue ,this is process generally followed in stock transfer but u can modify it to use for your consigment posting.
revert if u want to discuss further

Picking from warehouse for Consignment Fill Up

Dear Friends,
For the Consignment Fill Up flow , I am not able to create a transfer order for the delivery.
I am getting the below error :
Data for storage type search is not defined (A )
But from the same plant, I am able to do picking through transfer order for normal sales order.
Is there any specific setting that needs to be maintained for the Consignment Fill up flow with regard to warehouse setup.
Please advise.
Regards,
Harsh

Dear Harsh,
I'm very sorry, I think I misunderstood your question.
1. You can do outbound delivery (picking+GI) from consignement stock.
2. You have problem when you want to create TO from TR that was created when goods arrived at your WH.
You said you cannot create TO. I guess you can create TO, your problem is that SAP can't find automatically into which bins to move the goods when you process the TR (are creating the TO). Please confirm it.
(you can give the destination storage typr/bin manually)
If your problem is this you can check your settings:
SPRO > LE > WM > Strategies > Storage Type Search (+ S. Section Search + S. Bin S.)
Here you can choose 'Determine search sequence' > Please select the relevant line, that you use for the putaway of normal goods > copy it and write 'K' in 'special stock indicator' field.
I do not know your settings but maybe this information can help you to start to resolve the problem you are facing.
