The SAP SD consignment process allows a company to store goods at a customer's location

while maintaining ownership until the customer consumes or issues the goods. This process
involves four key steps: consignment fill-up, consignment issue, consignment return, and
consignment pick-up.

Here's a more detailed explanation:

1. Consignment Fill-Up:

 The company sends goods to the customer's location, but the goods remain the
company's property.

 This is recorded in the system as a consignment fill-up order and delivery, with no
billing involved.

 The goods are stored in a special consignment stock at the customer's location.

2. Consignment Issue:

 When the customer uses or sells the goods, they initiate a consignment issue.

 This triggers the creation of a consignment issue order, delivery, and invoice.

 The goods are then transferred from the consignment stock to the customer's own
stock, and the customer is billed for the issued quantity.

3. Consignment Return:

 If the customer has leftover or damaged goods, they can return them to the
company.

 This is recorded as a consignment return order and delivery, with the goods moving
back into the company's consignment stock.

 Billing is reversed for returned quantities.

4. Consignment Pick-Up:

 The company can also retrieve goods from the customer's consignment stock.

 This is done through a consignment pick-up order and delivery, with the goods
moving back into the company's regular stock.

 No billing is involved in this step.

Key Aspects of the Consignment Process:

 Special Stock:

Consignment stock is managed separately from regular stock in the system, using special
stock indicators (e.g., W4).
 Document Types and Item Categories:

Different document types and item categories are used for each step of the process to
handle deliveries, invoices, and ownership transfer.

 Movement Types:

Specific movement types (e.g., 633 for consignment issue) are used to update inventory and
accounting documents.

 Billing:

Billing only occurs during the consignment issue and return stages, when the ownership of
the goods transfers.
