You execute a vendor’s consignment process when you want to receive goods which remain under the property of the external vendor. They are received and remain in a special stock K until you send them back to the owner or you decide to buy them.
The following transactions and process steps are part of the vendor consignment:
1) You create a consignment Inforecord with tcode ME11. It must contain at least the purchasing price and the Tax Code.
2) You Create Purchase Requisition/Purchase Order with Item category as “K” with ME51N/ME21N. The Info record is linked.
3) When goods are received at stock you post the Good Receipt with movement 101 K with transaction MIGO with reference to the Purchase Order.
4) If you need to buy vendor’s materials in consignment you post movement 411 K with transaction MB1B.
5) If you need to return back vendor’s materials in consignment you post movement 122 K with transaction MIGO (A02 Return Delivery -> R02 Material document -> Your Original GR). You can directly post the GI from MIGO. If you need a delivery you select the check box “Via Delivery” in the MIGO “General” tab screen.
6) If you selected the “Via Delivery” option a delivery is created in background. In this case you have to post the relevant Picking and GI from transaction VL02N
7) You print out the shipment document from the relevant message output you created for the delivery type (RLL)
8) For those materials you decided to buy, you post the Vendor Settlement with transaction MRKO.
9) You clear the payment with transaction F-53
