Intermediate Consignees (tccom1161m000)Use this session to view and maintain intermediate consignees. For each intermediate consignee, specify the address and the sold-to business partner, ship-to business partner, or both, who require their suppliers to use the intermediate consignee. If the ship-from warehouse determines the intermediate consignee to be used, you must also specify a warehouse.
Intermediate Consignee A distribution center where goods sent from the supplier are consolidated and often repacked before being shipped to the final destination at the customer's. An intermediate consignee is owned by the customer or a carrier acting on behalf of the customer. Sold-to Business Partner The business partner who orders goods or services from your organization, who owns the configurations you maintain, or for whom you perform a project. Usually a customer's purchase department. The agreement with the sold-to business partner can include:
Ship-to Business Partner The business partner to whom you ship the ordered goods. This usually represents a customer's distribution center or warehouse. The definition includes the default warehouse from which you send the goods, the carrier who carries out the transport, and the related sold-to business partner. Site The site from which the goods are shipped to the intermediate consignee. Ship-from Warehouse The warehouse from which the goods are shipped to the intermediate consignee. Specify a ship-from warehouse if goods issued from the warehouse must be shipped to a specific intermediate consignee. For example, if item A is issued from warehouse X, item A must be shipped to intermediate consignee A101. If item A is shipped from a different warehouse, or if no ship-from warehouse is specified, item A must be shipped to intermediate consignee B102. Description The description of the intermediate consignee. Address The intermediate consignee's address.
