Consignment and GOAs / SRM

[Former Member]

Dear all,

I am looking for some insights into your experiance with Consignment driven

Processes in SRM / R/3.

E.g. there are no technical issues using consignment items in GOAs and distribute

the GOA into R/3. But from pricing perspective, the price needs to be zero as

well the committment needs to be only build in the moment when the good is used.

Does anybody have experiance with using consignment in a SRM / R/3

environment and insights into the issues and the solution?

Many thanks,

Claudia

Does anybody have experiance on using Consignment Items in Contract

Management (GOAs distributed to Backend as well Operational Contracts

initialized in SRM and created directly in Backend) in via SRM?

Consignment Items usually do not create a committment till the material is taken.

Nevertheless these materials are a great source for savings as well natural source

of supply using them via GOAs / Contracts distributed / created via SRM.

Anybody came across that requirement and put a successfull solution in place?

I am looking forward to any of your insights and / or solutions to be discussed.

(I am not missing any config, OSS Notes, etc. I aware of existing documentation)

Many thanks,

Claudia
