stored at a particular location.

Pipeline handling
Sales order stock
Project stock
In consignment processing, the vendor provides materials
and stores them on your premises. The vendor remins owner
of the material until you with draw material from
consignment stock.
In subcontract processing the vendor recieves child
materials with which it produces parent material.
In stock transfer, transfer of material from one plant to
another plant with stock transport order.

tranported more than once beetween vendors.
