Consignment terms is the amount that is to be paid to the consignor who sold the work on behalf of the original seller.

There are multiple options to calculate how much is to be paid to the consignor. To select one of the options, select the dropdown under **Pay to Consignor**, then select the applicable option.

Once an option is selected, you can then **add the correct amount**, as well as any **notes (optional)**. You can also choose a Consignor from your contacts saved in ARTERNAL. Then, select **Next (Transactions).**

You will then be directed to a **transactions** page where you can create a **Consigned In** transaction. The work will be automatically added to this transaction, and you can select a contact under the **From** section.

Once the transaction is created, then the Expense Overview will display this information, and the new Consigned In will show in the **Transactions** section.

The Expense overview will always reflect any financial information in the breakdown chart (except if the **Internal Records** option is selected - this will be discussed in a later article).
