Drop Ship and Consignment Warehouses.

864 Views

Hi Everyone;

What is the main difference between a Drop Ship and a Consignment Warehouse. As per my understanding example for Drop Ship warehouse would be ebay, as if some company wants to sell it s products it will use ebay as a drop ship warehouse.

Consignment warehouse only has a accounting effect when the products is sold. so example of consignment warehouse will be like Honda selling it s cars through it s dealers..so if a dealer in new york sold one Honda car only then it will have an accounting and warehouse effect in it s headquarters in Detroit and Ny.

Please correct me if i am wrong as i always get confused in this. I am preparing for my B1 certification.

Thanks and Regards

Nitin
