Stock Consignment Module#
The stock consignment modules allow to manage consignment stock from supplier or at customer warehouse.
The consignment stock from supplier is managed by creating a supplier location under the company’s warehouse storage. The location can be filled using an Internal Shipment from the external supplier location. The products are used also by using an Internal Shipment from the consignment location to a storage location. In this case, a supplier invoice line is created for the supplier defined on the location.
The consignment stock at customer warehouse is managed by creating a storage location under the customer location. The location can be filled using an Internal Shipment from a warehouse. It is possible to define a lead time between the warehouse and the storage location. The products are used also by using an Internal Shipment from the consignment location to a customer location. In this case, a customer invoice line is created for the customer defined on the location.
It is allowed to make inventory for those consignment locations.
A new field is added to Location:
Consignment Party: The party invoiced when consignment is used.
