        The consignment type can be `SUPPLIER`, `OUTLET` or `RETURN` (not `STOCKTAKE`).


        The status of the consignment will determine which values make sense:


        - If the consignment type is `OUTLET` the sent cost may not be accurate when the status is `OPEN`.

        - If the consignment is `OPEN` or `SENT` the received count and cost should both be zero.

        - For completely received consignments received cost should equal the sent cost and the received count should equal the sent count.

        - For partially received consignments we would expect the received cost value to be less than sent cost value, and the received count to be less than the sent count.
