Report Quantity Consumed
Explanation
A customer's consumption from the consignment stock can be manually reported
in the system or can be reported automatically by using an Integration API.
This is typically done after a consumption signal from the customer, e.g., a
phone call. The consumption must be reported before the customer can be invoiced.
If the quantity on hand after the reported consumption falls below the order
point, a dialog opens and gives you the option to create a refill order.
Prerequisites
- Material must have been delivered to a consignment stock at the customer.
- The customer must have reported the consumption to you.
System Effects
- The sales accountings are created and the customer can be invoiced.
- If customer consignment consumption details are sent through an Integration
API, system will perform consumption reporting based on FIFO basis even
when aggregated reporting is not allowed.
- Once, the consumption is reported either manually or automatically,
a record will be created in Outstanding Sales
page including consumption details.
- If Create Refill Order parameter is set to
True in request payload, then a single customer order will be created
to refill specified sales parts only when the consignment stock quantity
of each sales part falls below the order point.
- After reporting consumed quantity, you can generate a report through
Order Report page to view consumed customer consignment
stock details.
