how we should handle this kind of intercompany flow in NetSuite with inventory items ( arm length po so ) Like: • UK was expecting 10 units, France warehouse only shipped 8 — what do we do? • UK was expecting 10, actually received 8, but France marked 10 as shipped — what’s the move here?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

In NetSuite, handling intercompany flows with inventory items, especially in cases where there are discrepancies between expected and actual quantities, can be managed in a few ways. For the first scenario, where the UK was expecting 10 units, but the France warehouse only shipped 8, you can adjust the inventory in NetSuite to reflect the actual quantity shipped. This can be done by creating an Inventory Adjustment record to decrease the quantity of the item in the France warehouse by 2 units. On the sales order side, you can adjust the quantity to match the actual quantity shipped. For the second scenario, where the UK was expecting 10, actually received 8, but France marked 10 as shipped, you can create an Inventory Adjustment to increase the quantity in the France warehouse by 2 units, since these were not actually shipped. On the sales order side, you can adjust the quantity to match the actual quantity received. In both scenarios, it's important to communicate with the other party to ensure that they are aware of the discrepancies and adjustments. Remember, these are just workarounds and may not be the best solution for every business. It's always a good idea to review your business processes and see if there are ways to prevent these discrepancies from happening in the first place. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
