In a consignment scenario, the ownership of goods changes in the following events:

Consignment stock is consumed by the customer (C): Ownership transfers when the customer consumes or uses the consignment stock.

Posting from consignment stock to the buyer's own stock (D): Ownership transfers when the consignment stock is moved to the buyer’s own stock.

The other options are not events that directly affect ownership transfer:

Invoice from the customer is received by supplier (A): Invoicing does not change ownership but acknowledges the financial transaction.

Goods receipt for consignment stock is posted (B): Posting the receipt confirms the stock availability but does not affect ownership.

In SAP ERP, theItem category (C)differentiates a standard purchase order line item from a consignment purchase order line item.
