how long does review negative inventory take

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

The time it takes to review negative inventory in NetSuite can vary greatly depending on the number of items, the complexity of your inventory structure, and the specific issues you're encountering. It's not explicitly stated in the conversations, but it's a process that requires careful review and potentially making inventory adjustments or using worksheets to correct any discrepancies. In the conversations, it's mentioned that negative inventory can be prevented by enabling the 'Prevent Negative Inventory' feature in NetSuite. However, this might not be a viable solution for all businesses, especially if it would interfere with sales orders and invoicing for kit package items. If you're dealing with a large amount of negative inventory that needs to be offset, one user suggested using the import option to map Inventory Adjustments. This could potentially speed up the process, but it would still require careful review to ensure accuracy. Another user pointed out that if your inventory is lot numbered, NetSuite will not allow negative quantities. However, this isn't always the case, as certain transactions can still result in negative inventory. Lastly, if you're seeing negative inventory without a location in the Review Negative Inventory screen, it was suggested that this could be caused by Multi-location inventory being turned on after the account was already active. A Distribute Inventory transaction might be able to fix this issue. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
