SAP MM VENDOR CONSIGNMENT PROCUREMENT PROCESS

In this post, we will learn about SAP MM Vendor Consignment Procurement Process.

Vendor consignment is a process where supplier (vendor) provides material to purchaser and stores in the premises of the purchaser itself.  Ownership of that material lies in the hands of supplier although it is stored in purchasers premise.

In other words, we can say that the material remains in the books of the vendor until withdrawn from consignment stock.  Inventory in the hands of purchaser gets affected only when the stock gets transferred.
