Multi-location Inventory , need turned off ASAP

edited Dec 3, 2019 3:05PM in General 3 comments

Hello,

We underestimated the simple warning message Netsuite presented us when we went to turn on Multi-location inventory (MLI). (It mentioned NOTHING about negative inventory potentially causing catastrophic problems)

The problem now, is

1---> All our previous inventory onhand values, on order values, Reorder points, etc have been LOST until we "distribute" the inventory

2---> We cannot "distribute" the inventory, neither with simple distribution nor advanecd, until we go back and correct the Negative inventory values we had for some items. (We receive the error "one or more items must have a positive inventory value")

3---> Unfortunately, since none of our inventory values show up in netsuite anymore (they appear hidden), we cannot change our previous "on hand" values to POSITIVE until MLI is turned off!!!!!!

Howdy, Stranger!
