Stock control at vendor location

[Former Member]

Hi MM experts,

In this scenario, all stock materials are kept at vendoru2019s plant until we need to consume them. The process involves the creation Purchase req, PO, MIGO and MIRO. When we need to consume the material we call the vendor and ask them to send it to our plant. How can we control the quantity of each material per vendor using the standard system.

Please advise,

Create the vendor as storage location, receive the goods into this storage location when you become owner. In the moment you tell the vendor to ship the materials to your site, create a stock transfer.

Hi,

Thanks for your response. To avoid increase in maintenance of the enterprise structure, the solution to create storage location for each vendor was not chosen. Batch management option was also excluded. Is there any other way to do this.

Please advise.

Thx.
