why would the item description for a non inventory item not be pulled into the vendor bill? how do we see this in the transaction detail?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

The item description for a non-inventory item might not be pulled into the vendor bill due to the way NetSuite handles transaction data. In NetSuite, the AR is at the transaction header level and the items are at the line level. This means that line detail, such as item descriptions, may not be automatically included in the vendor bill. To see this in the transaction detail, you would need to manually include the item description in a field that is included in the vendor bill. One way to do this could be to populate the item descriptions to the Memo (main line) field. However, it's important to note that this is a workaround and may not be suitable for all use cases. For example, if you have multiple items on a single bill, this method may not work as expected. Also, it's worth noting that vendor bill variances for non-inventory items are not posted on the Post Vendor Bill Variances page in NetSuite. Only inventory items that have a variance will reflect on this page. Non-Inventory items will not be reflected. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
