How to prevent over issuing components to work order during backflush

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To prevent over issuing components to a work order during backflush in NetSuite, you can follow these steps: 1. Ensure Accurate Inventory Levels: Make sure that your inventory levels are accurate. This includes not only the quantity on hand but also the quantity available. The quantity available takes into account any quantities that are committed to other transactions such as sales orders or work orders. If the quantity available is less than the quantity required for the work order, then the system may over issue components. 2. Use the Correct Issue Method: When setting up your items, make sure to select the correct issue method. If you are using the backflush method, then the system will automatically issue the components when the work order is completed. If you want to issue the components at a different time, then you may need to use a different issue method. 3. Monitor Work Order Status: Keep an eye on the status of your work orders. If a work order is marked as backordered, this could indicate that there are not enough components available to complete the work order. You may need to adjust your inventory levels or change the issue method to prevent over issuing. 4. Set Up Automatic Work Order Creation: If you have sales orders that require a large quantity of a certain item, you can set up automatic work order creation. This can help to ensure that you have enough components available to fulfill the sales order and prevent over issuing. Remember, it's important to regularly review and adjust your inventory levels and work order settings to ensure that you are not over issuing components. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
