Hey All - We have assembly items on sales orders that have plenty available to commit, however, NetSuite by default wants us to create work orders. I would love it if we could commit assembly items if we have enough available without having to create a work order. I did some digging and found a mention of a feature to do this, Commit Available Assembly Inventory. However, I can't find it. Anyone else have any experience with this feature or where it might be located?

It should commit available inventory unless you have special work order enabled for that item Is it making a work order linked to the transaction line?
n
Yes, on the transaction line it will make a work order for that item.
m
On the item record there should be a checkbox labeled special work order Uncheck that box
Or when you first create the SO uncheck the box in the create WO column

I just checked and we don't have the special work order check box checked.
Let me check when creating an SO.

I have pretty much the same concerns as you. I have quantities available in stock and cannot perform a fulfillment if I do not create a work order

I built a script for these scenarios. Leave the items as Special Order Work Order items (or Dropship items), on a beforeSubmit userevent script, check inventory levels of the items, and then perform the logic to create a PO/WO or use available inventory for the line.
