Overview: Consigned Inventory Using Customer Portal

Customer Portal supports the sale of consigned inventory to the customer. This means a customer can create a sales order and receive material shipped by the seller but pay for it only after the customer reports consumption of the material. Customer Portal provides specialized inventory menu options that report consigned inventory quantities received and consigned inventory quantities consumed.

Inventory Menu

The Inventory menu functions are:

Receipt Advice

Allows the user to record received quantity from the supplier.

Consumption Advice

Allows the user to record the consumption of consigned inventory.

Inventory Inquiry

Allows the user to view the total consigned inventory for a location.

Transaction Inquiry

Allows the user to view the transaction history for an item at a specific location.
