Customer Consignment
Customer Consignment
In some countries, where a legal document is used as an invoice, you must create two legal documents—a shipping legal document and a sales legal document.
• A shipping legal document is created along with a shipper and is sent to the customer with the ordered inventory.
• A sales legal document is created when the supplier creates an invoice for the consumed inventory.
In short, the shipping legal document is used as a shipping document and the sales legal document is used to invoice a customer for the consumed inventory.
The following flow chart shows you the difference in the process flow between the customer consignment with and without simultaneous operations when creating two legal documents.
