End-to-End Manufacturing Process Tracking in NetSuite (Workbooks vs SuiteQL)
We have 4 process groups and workorders (CPI → Cutting → Stitching → Finished Goods) to produce finished goods from raw material. We need full tracking from Customer Sales Order to Group Invoice, linking Customer, Item, Transaction, and Manufacturing datasets.
The challenge: some joins require self-joins / inner / outer joins between transactional and manufacturing datasets, which don’t seem possible in Workbooks.
I was able to achieve this using SuiteQL outside NetSuite, but haven’t been able to replicate it with Workbooks, Charts, or Saved Searches inside NetSuite.
Has anyone implemented something similar, or found a workaround to handle these joins within NetSuite?
