Overage is not allowed. when saving item receipt in netsuite

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

Based on the conversations, it appears that overage is not allowed when saving item receipt in NetSuite. This is due to the accounting preference in NetSuite that does not allow receiving more quantity than what's on the Purchase Order (PO). However, there are a few workarounds suggested in the threads: 1. You could receive what is on the PO and then edit the receipts to increase for overages. This is a two-step process and not ideal, but it's the best option without scripting. 2. Another approach would be to use a Suitelet script that asks what quantity to receive of each line on the Shipment. On submit, the script would create the native receipts for full quantity, and then have an update run at the end that would automatically increase the quantities on the receipt based on what was entered in the Suitelet. 3. If the supplier over ships and tells you to keep the extra, you can add overages on item receipts if you have allowed overages in item receipt feature enabled. When you bill, the extra overages are billed on the same PO. 4. If the vendor shipped more than the PO quantity and all were wrong, you could do a Vendor Return Authorization (VRMA) back to the vendor. You could then create a new line item so that the correct items can be received in against the original PO. Remember, these are workarounds and may not be ideal for all situations. It's always best to ensure that the quantity on the PO matches the quantity being received to avoid any complications. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
