1 Returnable Packaging
Implementation Considerations
Returnable packaging consists of materials that are stored at the customer location but which remain the property of your company. The customer is only required to pay you for the returnable packaging if he does not return it to you by a specified time. Using this function you can, for example, process euro-pallets. You can also use it to resell returnable packaging to a third party. Since stocks of returnable packaging form part of your valuated stock even when they are at the customer site, you must manage them in your system. However, stocks of returnable packaging must be Managed separately from the rest of your stock so that you know exactly what stock is stored at the customer location Managed separately for each customer Inventory management treats returnable packaging as special stock in your inventory and is assigned to specific customers. This enables you to keep track of returnable packaging stock by customer.
If you want to manage returnable packaging for a carrier, for whom a vendor record already exists, you must also create a customer master record for the carrier. You are then able to assign returnable packaging stock to the carrier.
Process Flow
There are three main transactions for processing returnable packaging, all of which support separate inventory management: Creating Returnable Packaging Shipments Creating Returnable Packaging Pick-Up Creating Returnable Packaging Issue
When you ship returnable packaging to the customer, you do not need to use a special order type. The transaction is a normal business transaction and you can use either a standard sales order or, if appropriate, a free of charge delivery.
