HI ANUSHA

Can anybody please clarify the followinf questions for me?

1) when we order items on csonginemnt? where does the price get pulled from on to the PO?

ANSWER: You have make an PO whern one material of the vendor you have take one of them from your Warhouse, You won´t never see the cost on your PO Because this is not product for you only are you going to remplace the product that you take it, an after you have to pay them.

2) what does consignment nforecord do?

This date is very important because this date will take the price on the document material when you make the MRKO automatically this price will take from Info Record

3) when we do the GR for the consignment, will there be any FI docs?

Yes you Will do because remember thaht there are an account that you have cancel when make MRKO

4) what will be the price when we actually consume it bya 261 mvt type. at that time what price gets pulled over? what will be the price on the invoice ?

The price will be take from Info Record.

...just a correction...

No FI document will be created at GR since the ownership of the stock won't chnage.

FI document is created when you take out goods from consignment stock (e.g. post it to your own stock, consume goods from consignment stock)

Please check:

- OSS note 14300

Hi ,

your question is almost answered . But I think the answers are not clear.

1)We order consignment material when we don't want to spend money before the sell of the material . So it is an advantage for us . But you may ask what is the advantage of the vendor . The answer is vendor don't have to store the material as it is in our premises . As the vendor is storing their material to our space , he is getting a larger production space .

There is no price is PO , so no question of pulling price in PO .

2)When you settle consignment liabilities through MRKO , the price and TAX is being picked from Consignment Info record. It is why , Consignment PIR is mandatory for procurement of consignment material.

3)We do GR to receive goods . It will increase our vendor consignment stock so that the system knows that this much of material is of vendor consignment which the vendor has sent to us .

No as consignment material is not valuated at the time of GR , THERE WILL NOT BE ANY FI DOCUMENTS GENERATED.

4) the stock account will be debited according to MMR price. the consumption account will be credited according to PIR price . and the difference will be posted to price difference account .

The price in the invoice will be picked from Consignment PIR.

Hope it clears you doubt now .

Thanks and regards,

Anupam
