Real Life Eg : A company like Nestlé supplies Maggie noodles to a large supermarket
chain (e.g., D-Mart), but instead of selling the stock outright, they place the products
on a consignment basis.
1) Consignment Fill-Up (KB) – Stock sent to the customer
• Nestlé delivers 500 packs of Maggie noodles to D-Mart but does not invoice them.
• The stock still belongs to Nestlé and is recorded in D-Mart's consignment stock in
SAP.
2) Consignment Issue (KE) – Customer sells the stock
• After one month, D-Mart sells 300 packs of Maggie to end customers.
• Now, Nestlé generates an invoice for 300 packs based on the actual sales.
3) Consignment Returns (KR) – Unsold stock returned
• D-Mart realizes that 50 packs are damaged or unsold and returns them.
• Nestlé updates its consignment stock and adjusts inventory.
4) Consignment Pick-Up (KA) – Take back remaining stock
• After another month, if 150 packs are still unsold, D-Mart asks Nestlé to take them
back.
• Nestlé records this in SAP, moving the stock from consignment back to its warehouse.
