CONSIGNMENT INVENTORY Carol Rogers Paxar Corporation Consignment Inventory from the supplier exists when inventory is in the possession of one party, but remains the property of another party by mutual agreement. Consigned inventory from the supplier refers to one type of consigned inventory practice where you receive and maintain goods belonging to one or more of your suppliers. The supplier of the stock is financially responsible for the stock until the ownership transfers from the supplier to the holder. Benefits through Consigned Inventory: Holding material on consignment reduces the lead time for items that might be required to fill sales orders. Financial resources are free until customer commitments are ensured, or items are used in production.

Create the Subinventory The subinventory is not an Asset Subinventory and not Depreciable. Create the subinventory where the consigned parts will be stored. The subinventory is not an Asset Subinventory and not Depreciable.

Create the Subinventory Set the account numbers for the subinventory. The items we are discussing today are finished goods so they are in the finished goods account. Check the account numbers for the subinventory. The items we are discussing today are finished goods so they are in the finished goods account.

ITEM DEFINITION The item must be assigned to the Organization where it will be stored. Items are Transactable, Stockable, and Reservable on the Inventory attributes. The item must be a consigned item, check the the Consigned box on the General attribute tab. Note: Consigned Inventory from Supplier does not use Outside Processing, EAM items, Configure to Order and Assemble to Order items

SUPPLIER AND SITE If the supplier is also used to source product that is not consigned, you may want to add another site for the supplier for consignment. The supplier site must be a purchasing site. You enable paying your supplier by selecting a method on the Purchasing tab of the Supplier Sites window in Oracle Payables. When self-billing for the supplier site is enabled, you will create invoices automatically rather than wait for the supplier to bill you.

CREATE BLANKET PURCHASE AGREEMENTS Blanket purchase agreements are required for consigned inventory, they provide the details of the goods you plan to buy from a specific supplier in a period, but you do not yet know the detail of our delivery schedules. Blanket purchase agreements specify negotiated prices for your items before actually purchasing them. The Blanket Purchase agreement is used to create releases when the product is consumed according to the Consumption Rules you will define. Oracle recommends that you do not use the header level amount agreed for your blanket purchase agreement. Using this option Creating Approved Suppliers limits your ability to consume material above the agreed levels.

CREATING APPROVED SUPPLIERS Use the Record detail tab to indicate if your approved supplier can be a local or global supplier. A local ASL is used only in the organization in which it was defined. A global ASL may be used in all organizations you specify.

CREATING APPROVED SUPPLIERS Inventory Tabbed region This region is used to enable consigned inventory, indicate Billing Cycle Days and define the Aging parameters. The Billing Cycle Days is used by the concurrent batch program, Create Consumption Advice, to generate consumption advice documents for billing records. The Last Billing Cycle Date field is set to the system date when you set up Consigned Inventory from the supplier. It is updated each time the program runs. In the example, the Billing Cycle Date is not used but the Consumption Advice report is scheduled to run at the end of each month. The default is null. If the value is null, a consumption advice is created every time consigned material is consumed. The Billing Date is defaulted to the current system date, and subsequently updated every time the Create Consumption Advice concurrent program is executed. In the example today, we are not required to consume the consigned material in a specified period of time. If you are required to consume in stipulated time then enable the check box and indicate the maximum number of days material may be kept using the Aging Period Days.

DEFINE CONSUMPTION TRANSACTION RULES

DEFINE CONSUMPTION TRANSACTION RULES The Consumption Setup window, located in Inventory Set Up, is used to enlist additional transaction types for consigned inventory consumption. These transactions include Subinventory Transfer, Move Orders, and others. In the example, whenever a Sales Order Pick or Internal Order Picks, the From Subinventory is TSC and it is transferred to FSV Stage. Consumption transactions are performed either explicitly of implicitly. This is an Implicit consumption which refers to any type of consumption in which the system automatically determines that consumption is necessary and selects the owning parties whose stock will be used up to complete the required transaction. The system automatically generates a Transfer to Regular transaction whenever consumption takes place.

PURCHASING CONSIGNED MATERIAL Purchase orders for consigned material can be entered using the Purchase Orders window.The relevant purchase order shipment lines are automatically marked as consigned. Orders for consigned material are created as standard purchase orders. The destination type for all consigned shipment distributions is always set to Inventory.

Shipment lines for consigned material have the following attributes: Invoice Close Tolerance is 100 percent because the consigned shipment is not invoiced.
