### How to handle the sale when the Distributor ships to the End Customer ###

Hi,

Need help with the below scenario.

a) Product will be sold to a distributor first...and will reside at the distributor warehouse...This transaction should not be counted for revenue/COGS

b) Order comes in from a retail customer and the distributor will be asked to ship the product to the retail customer.

c) The real sale should be registered only when the product is sold by the distributor to the retail customer..The revenue and COGS should be counted ONLY for this second leg of the transaction.

d) The warranty should be held by the retail customer.

Please suggest on how to handle such a scenario.Is there a standard way of handling this ?
