NetSuite guides
Follow demand into planned orders and planned orders into production. Each guide shows the transaction evidence to check before moving to the next step, from BOM revision through WIP completion and fulfillment.
Run the Costed Bill of Materials report for a multilevel assembly and compare Material Costs, Top Level Costs and Fully Exploded Costs to see which subassemblies carry the labor and machine cost.
Use the Cost Variance Analysis SuiteApp to compare a work order's planned and actual cost, then trace the overrun to components and routing operations.
Create a released non-WIP work order, review its component requirements, and save an assembly build for the planned production quantity.
Mark a subassembly as Phantom so the parent's work order and assembly build use its components directly, with no stock and no separate work order for the subassembly.
Create a non-WIP Assembly Build from a work order, inspect its GL entries, and reconcile the built quantity with the saved transaction.
Enter a partial NetSuite WIP work-order completion with backflush, then verify the component issue, completion, GL impact, and remaining order quantity.
Check the pegging behind an MRP planned purchase order, release it in Planning Workbench, then create the purchase orders from the Order Items Planned Orders tab.
Click Create PO on an outsourced work order to generate the subcontractor's purchase order, then receive it so NetSuite builds the assembly at the vendor's location.
Select Create WO on an eligible assembly sales-order line, save the order, and verify the generated special-order work order links back to customer demand.
Fulfill a NetSuite sales order after its manufactured assembly is available, then verify the Item Fulfillment, inventory detail, and order status.
Pick and stage component tasks for a released non-WIP work order, record the finished assembly in NetSuite WMS Mobile, and verify the linked Assembly Build.
Add process notes and numbered work instructions to a manufacturing routing operation, generate the work order traveler PDF, and find the instructions on that operation's page.
Report one lot-numbered component in NetSuite Manufacturing Mobile, then verify that its reported quantity changed without treating every component as consumed.
Add two dated revisions to a NetSuite bill of materials and see a work order pick the right one from its Production Start Date.
Create a default manufacturing routing for an assembly, then issue components and complete an operation range on the WIP work order that inherits it.
Create a planning item category, item group, and transfer rule group, point a supply plan definition at them, and run MRP for one product family.
Read an item's Supply Allocation, Supply Planning and Order Delay alerts in NetSuite Item 360, then use the Inventory view to find the order and location behind them.
Investigate a past-due NetSuite work order by checking its source demand, planned dates, built quantity, materials, routing, and production records.
Calculate a weekly item demand plan, override one week, generate the item supply plan, and create the purchase orders it recommends from Order Items.
Review MRP pegging, release a planned work order, and create the resulting work order with Mass Create Work Orders.
A sales order line is back ordered but the component sits inside finished assemblies. Enter an Assembly Unbuild in NetSuite, then check the order line commits.
Recalculate an item demand plan, confirm the supply plan reads demand plans, refresh the Planning Repository, and trace MRP's planned purchase orders back to the forecast.
