IS-Automotive What are the use cases? What is the process flow? What are the functions involved? IS-Automotive Special companies (external service providers: ESPs) can manage holding stock and staging materials. A supplier and the manufacturer/customer can r educe warehouse stock, storage space and therefore storage costs . In this case, the stocks remain the property of the supplier up until they are staged. The ESP’s stock is then managed as supplier consignment stock in SAP . What are the use cases? Parts procured externally: the supplier stores the parts, that are required by the manufacturer, in the ESP’s storage location. The ESP delivers these to the manufacturer when they are required. Parts procured externally and parts returned to storage: the manufacturer returns parts, that have already been received from the supplier (or ESP), to the ESP’s storage location.

For each event, check whether the event is expected to occur at a certain date or time. At the same time, also consider if the event is location- or partner-based. Where should the planned dates and times for my expected events come from? From where will the actual events be reported (e.g., IDoc, Legacy System, R/3)? Do I have any events that may occur but are not planned? Which rules should be applied to my process when events are or are not posted? Key Points Partners – See how your partners are performing and react to deviations to planned partners performing certain events in your pr...
