Here's a general approach: 1. Sales Orders: Sales orders in NetSuite have a checkbox labeled "Create WO" (Work Order). When this checkbox is selected, a work order is automatically created when the sales order is saved. 2. Suitelet for Approval: You can implement a Suitelet for approval. Once the sales order is approved via this Suitelet, the work order can be automatically created. 3. User Event Script: You can create a User Event Script that triggers on the beforeSubmit event of the sales order. This script can check if the line will be backordered (quantityavailable-quantity) < 0. If < 0, it can check the "Create WO" box, which will trigger the creation of a work order when the sales order is saved. 4. Automated Work Order Creation: When the "Create WO" checkbox is selected on an assembly item line of a sales order, it automatically creates the necessary work orders. However, please note that certain user events entry points may not be triggered during this automated process. Please note that this is a general approach and may need to be adjusted based on your specific business requirements and NetSuite setup.
