Returns of goods in consignment

Returns of goods in consignment

The process of consignment sale anticipates returns of goods, which failed to be sold, back to their vendors. The period in which goods can be returned as well as the quantity of goods subject to be returned depend on an agreement between the parties. Arrangements between parties can be registered on the form of a given customer/vendor, in tab Consignment.

Consignment warehouse of Customer’s type

Return from a customer’s consignment warehouse is executed by WM-/WM+ documents. If within the period of time set forth in the contract a customer has not sold the entire lot placed in the secondary customer’s consignment warehouse it can return the remaining part.

Depending from which warehouse resources in a secondary customer’s consignment warehouse originate, in WM- and WM+ documents the target warehouse will be a consignment warehouse of Own type – or a local warehouse and the source warehouse – the secondary customer’s consignment warehouse.

Note
It is not possible to move (return) resources from a secondary customer’s consignment warehouse, which originally come from a consignment warehouse of Own type to a local warehouse and adversely – coming from a local warehouse to a consignment warehouse of Own type.

Returned resources can be only moved to a warehouse from which they have been taken to a secondary customer’s consignment warehouse. In a case of returning resources to a local warehouse it is not important if it is the same

local warehouse or another local warehouse – it only needs to be a local warehouse. Original resources coming from a consignment warehouse of Own type have to be returned to the same warehouse.

Own consignment warehouse

In the situation when a customer did not sell in full the goods received at an own consignment warehouse and arranged with a vendor that the unsold goods would be returned, such operation can be registered with a PORQC or IR- document, depending on the moment of registering the return

A PORQC document can be issued only prior to making a payment to vendor for part of the goods that have already been sold.

Note
Only these resources can be returned with a PORQC which are currently available in own consignment warehouse to which the POR refer, for which the PORQC is being issued Resources available in other warehouses are not subject to return, although they have been originally received with the same POR document to which the PORQC is being issued.

If payment is made for the goods sold, return of the remaining goods can be registered with an IR- document.

The goods are not included in a CSR document when making subsequent payments to the vendor.

Local warehouse

If goods were delivered, in the process of consignment sale, to a local warehouse from an own consignment warehouse, such goods cannot be returned. This type of operation is tantamount to the purchase of goods from this vendor.
