Thank you to everyone for your passion, collaboration, and support. Here’s to building an even stronger community together in the year ahead!
Season’s greetings to you and yours! As we head into the holidays (December 24 – January 4), we want to take a moment to celebrate the incredible strength and collaboration within our community. Even during the break, you can continue to benefit from connecting with peers, searching related threads, posting your questions, and marking helpful replies as “Accepted” in the Support Community.
Please note our dedicated team will be on reduced coverage during this time, and regular responsiveness will resume on January 5. Wishing you a joyful and restful holiday season!

Expiration dates with demand and supply planning
Is there a solution for taking into account lot expiration dates related to demand and supply planning?
For example, given this scenario for Lot Numbered Inventory Item 12345:
* Current date: 5/8/2018
* Inventory quantity on hand: one lot of quantity 100, expiring 6/1/2018
* Demand: one sales order for quantity 50 to be shipped 6/5/2018
* No open purchase orders or transfer orders
Desired result:
* Recommend a purchase of 50 to arrive before 6/5, given that the current quantity on hand will expire before the sales order must ship.
I haven't seen this in any demos or documentation, but it seems like there must be a solution that doesn't require customization, since expiration dates are standard on lot records, and NetSuite supports demand and supply plans.
