Customer Consignment in SAP SD 📦

Customer Consignment is one of those SAP SD processes that is easier to understand when you relate it to a real business situation.

In simple words, the company sends goods to the customer’s location, but the ownership of those goods still remains with the company. The customer is billed only when the goods are actually consumed or sold.

The process has 4 main steps:

KB – Consignment Fill-Up → Goods are sent to the customer.
KE – Consignment Issue → Customer consumes the goods and billing becomes relevant.
KA – Consignment Pick-Up → Unused goods are taken back.
KR – Consignment Return → Previously issued goods are returned.

For SAP SD learners, understanding the movement of stock, ownership and billing is much more important than simply memorizing transaction types.

This is the kind of process knowledge that helps you understand real-time SAP SD scenarios better.

If you’re learning SAP PP, one thing you should understand early is that PP doesn’t work alone.

In a real manufacturing company, a simple requirement can involve multiple SAP modules.

For example, when a customer places an order, SD creates the demand.
Then PP/MRP helps plan what needs to be produced and what materials are required.
If materials are missing, MM comes into the picture for procurement and availability.

Once materials are available, PP manages the production process.
QM takes care of quality checks, while CO/FI captures the costing and financial impact.

And once the product is ready, EWM/WM helps manage the warehouse movement.

So the actual business flow can look like:

Sales → Planning → Procurement → Production → Quality → Costing → Warehouse

This is why we always encourage SAP learners to understand the complete business process, rather than learning transactions individually.

If you’re preparing for an SAP PP career or interview, understanding these integrations can make a big difference.
