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?
Should we do an inventory adjustment when we receive the completed assembly (pn 50201) so we properly account for inventory?
Should 520001 which we currently have as an assembly be classified as non-inventory parts or is it accurate as an assembly?
What should the completed assembly that we receive into inventory be classified as? We aren't doing any assembly therefore it shouldn't create a WO. Should we classify it as an assembly and mark it phantom? We can't mark it as an inventory item because we need to show the parts used to make it. We can't use kit/package because the part needs to be reflected in a BOM.
All of the parts YELLOW, GREEN, RED need to be able to sold individually to customers in certain instances, inventoried and reflected in BOMS.
