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!

Using NetSuite "locations" for returns whacks COGS!
Folks,
We initially struggled with how to handle customer returns in NetSuite. We eventually settled on using two additional locations for returned items, in addition to our main location, as follows:
- Open Box
- Damaged
When a customer returns a perfectly fine widget, we issue a credit memo with the location at the line-item level being "Open Box". We eventually fulfill this item from the same location (at a cheap price) to some lucky customer, and so ideally the # of items in the Open Box warehouse is usually zero.
The only problem is that the COGS of all these credit memos is wrong! In fact, Netsuite has created a whole whack of credit memos into (and fulfillments out of) the Open Box warehouse that have no G/L impact on either Cost of Sales or Inventory. Those lines are just missing!
