how do I setup sales orders to automatically generate work orders

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To set up sales orders to automatically generate work orders in NetSuite, you can follow these steps: 1. Navigate to the item record that you want to set up for automatic work order creation. 2. On the item record, go to the 'Manufacturing' tab. 3. Under the 'Manufacturing' tab, check the box that says 'Create Work Orders from Sales Orders'. 4. Save the item record. Now, whenever a sales order is created for this item, a corresponding work order will be automatically generated. However, if you want to implement approval logic to this process, you might need to use a Suitelet for approval. Once the sales order is approved through the Suitelet, the work order will be automatically created. Please note that there is no direct transform from Sales Order (SO) to Work Order (WO) in NetSuite. The process is handled through the item record settings as described above. Also, if you're using lot numbered items, make sure that the inventory detail (lot number) is selected on the sales order. If the sales order line is marked as a special order, NetSuite will create a new Work Order for that line on the Sales Order and that exact work order needs to be built in order for that line to be committed. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
