how will netsuite handle new items that need to be added to a quote but not created as an inventory item?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

In NetSuite, if you need to add new items to a quote but do not want to create them as inventory items, you can create them as non-inventory items. Non-inventory items are typically used for goods or services that your company buys, sells, or resells but does not track like inventory items. However, it's important to note that once a non-inventory item is created, it can only be converted to an inventory item and not to an assembly item or a kit. If you need to convert it to an assembly item in the future, you would need to create a new item record. If you need to track the consumption of these non-inventory items, you could consider adding a custom field on the transaction line level to select these items and then run a scheduled script to adjust the quantity of these items based on the transactions. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
