Why is discount item requiring fulfillment in netsuite?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
In NetSuite, the requirement for fulfilling a discount item might seem counter-intuitive, but it is part of the system's design to ensure accurate tracking and accounting. When you fulfill an order in NetSuite, it is essentially a process of confirming that the items in the order have been shipped or delivered. This includes all items in the order, including discount items. Even though a discount item is not a physical item that needs to be shipped, it is still considered as part of the order and therefore needs to be fulfilled. The fulfillment process in NetSuite is also closely tied to the accounting and inventory management aspects of the system. When an order is fulfilled, it triggers various accounting entries and inventory adjustments. For example, it can affect the cost of goods sold, sales revenue, and inventory quantities. Therefore, all items in the order, including discount items, need to be fulfilled to ensure that these accounting entries and inventory adjustments are accurate. In the case of dropship orders, the fulfillment process is slightly different. A dropship order does not interact with your NetSuite inventory. Instead, it is like an Item Fulfillment between the vendor and the customer. The Item Fulfillment for a dropship order does not generate an item receipt, but it does generate an item fulfillment. This is because the items in a dropship order are shipped directly from the vendor to the customer, so they do not pass through your inventory. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
