Strange Commitment Problems
I'm having some issues figuring out what has happened to our Committed Qty on a few of our item records.
NetSuite insists that our stock of widgets is committed as follows: 86 on hand, 86 committed and 47 back-ordered. This is what I see on the Inventory tab of the Item record.
There are no Sales Orders with any of these widgets committed in the system. I determined that with a saved search with the criteria Item is widget, Quantity Committed is greater than 0.
The next step was to check Allocate Inventory, which held a new surprise. All of the transactions that had committed widgets were from between 2006 and 2009. I searched for a few of the Sales Orders and found that none of them contained the widget and all had been completely fulfilled and billed.
