Hi

As I understand, you are thinking of consignment process for your business process from goods ownership point of view. And bit you are confuse, b'coz you are sending Material A, but in return you are getting Material B.

For your Business process, this generally terms as Subcontracting or Job work, where material ownership remains with you, but you sent Material A and receive Material B.

For further if you are looking for more information on Subcontracting/Job work, kindly search and you can come up with specific queries while configuring or running a test cycle in your system. Or you can refer SAP Help for understanding.

If my understanding is not in line with your requirement, kindly elaborate your business process.

Hi JP

Thank you for your quick response,yes its bit confusing even i heard this from my business user ,basically his requirement as follows.

They sell medical consumable items and they want to supply them to their customers and bill them based on the consumption thats why we use consignment process here but now the new requirement from them is some times they will take back in return which is different than what they have supplied on this consignment delivery  of same value which we may have supplied them earlier.

I agree consignment process might not work here we have to think of alternative solution as you have mentioned I will try to explore the subcontracting/job.

In nut shell this is something similar to barter system you sell something and buy back another item from the customer instead of getting cash from him.

Hi SAJID,

They sell medical consumable items and they want to supply them to their customers and bill them based on the consumption

This can be purely consignment. if the material is same as material sent to them, then use consignment pickup to get the material back. And material that are sold should have Consignment process in place.

 they will take back in return which is different than what they have supplied on this consignment delivery

Practically, for these you can't include them in consignment. These to material need to be handled in different business process cycles

As you are more interested in settling out this with them, then better have Credit/Debit memo in place for these other Material to be settled against your material sent to then in consignment fill-up and that are open. And you can get those material in your system through non-PO GR.

Frankly, after going through your elaborated response, I don't think Job work or Subcontracting suits your process.

Thanks,

JP
