How do we account or parts that are sent loose and then returned as a complete assembly from a vendo

in Ask A Guru 5 comments

We have a situation with inventory parts that we are unsure how to process thru netsuite in addition to what item type they should be classified as. We purchase an assembly from a vendor that includes 5 parts that they supply and 4 parts that we ship to them from our inventory that go on the assembly. The vendor then returns the part as a completed assembly including our parts and their parts.

We purchase pn 520001 (YELLOW) from vendor.

We send the vendor all of the part numbers highlighted in GREEN

The completed assembly gets returned to us as pn 50201 (RED)

We purchase 520001 but we won't be receiving it back into our inventory as 520001 because it will be returned as 50201. How should we handle the PO once we receive the completed assembly? Close it?

Howdy, Stranger!
