Allowed values

Company Owned

company owned

Consigned

consigned

Customer Owned

customer owned

Return as Issued

When items are returned from the production environment to the warehouse, for example, because fewer items were required than issued for production, the original owner at the time of issue will become the owner again (unless the items are damaged).

Deferred

The date the ownership is transferred from supplier to customer is still unknown. The change date is determined after the items are picked, and depends on both the warehouse types involved in the goods transfer and the agreement between supplier and customer.

Not Applicable
