Why is there no GL Impact on Drop Ship Item Fulfillments?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

The reason there is no GL Impact on Drop Ship Item Fulfillments is because these items are not physically present in your inventory. When an item is marked as a drop ship item, it means that it is shipped directly from the supplier to the customer. Therefore, it does not affect your on-hand inventory and consequently, there is no General Ledger (GL) impact. In NetSuite, the GL impact is typically seen when there is a change in the inventory, such as when an item is sold or purchased. However, in the case of drop ship items, since they are not part of your inventory, there is no change in the inventory to record in the GL. Remember, the GL impact only shows the inventory. Any shipping costs associated with the drop ship items will not show up on the Item Fulfillment GL impact, but will instead be tied to the Sales Order, Invoice, or Cash Sale. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
