Vendor Consignment Scenario In Sap MM

Special Procurements Vendor Consignment Scenario

Vendor Consignment

Consignment is functionality in SAP MM purchasing when you purchase the material from the vendor on a consignment basis.

We will provide the premises to the vendor in our stores; however, we are not responsible for the stock.

The stock is legally owned by the vendor only - When the delivery comes, we will make a GR even then, stock still legally by the vendor. If you look at our stock status, it shows as ‘Vendor Consignment’ stock.

As and when we want the material, whatever the quantity it is we will simply transfer the vendor consignment stock into our company's own stock.

The vendor need not send the invoice or bill for with drawl quantity. The company will settle his consignment liabilities
