NSC | Why the Second Work Order Completion Shows No GL Impact After Additional Component Issues
Scenario
A user is working with a Work Order in Average Costing and notices this sequence:
- Work Order Issue 1 is entered for quantity 1
- Work Order Completion 1 is entered for quantity 1 and posts GL impact
- Work Order Issue 2 is entered for the remaining components
- Work Order Completion 2 is entered for quantity 1, but no GL impact is generated
The user also notices that after the second issue is created, the GL impact of the first completion changes.
Solution
This is standard NetSuite behavior for Work Orders using Average Costing with WIP. NetSuite recalculates and reallocates cost across partial completions so the total WIP balance is cleared correctly by Work Order close.
