• Key Concepts: 
  An authorized consignor is a company that is authorized to send goods to customers on behalf of another company. This is done through a consignment agreement, which outlines the terms and conditions of the arrangement. In the SAP Beverage Industry Solution (IS-BEV), an authorized consignor is responsible for managing the inventory of goods that are sent to customers. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In IS-BEV, an authorized consignor can be set up in the system by creating a customer master record. This record will contain information about the consignor, such as their name, address, and contact information. Once this record is created, the consignor can then be assigned to a specific customer in the system. This will allow the consignor to manage the inventory of goods that are sent to that customer.
