Print Consumption Advice Report

When to Use

The Print Consumption Advice Report scheduled process lets you print a report of consumption advices for a given supplier. This report can be sent to the supplier to show the usage of consigned inventory for a particular period. The consumption advice report shows details such as inventory organization, item, purchase order, receipt, and consumed quantity. The supplier uses this report to confirm the quantity of consigned inventory that the buyer (organization) has consumed. You can also use this report to facilitate financial settlement.
