In the latest release 2024.1 release notes there was a new functionality offered regarding importing of Work Orders. The release notes mentioned: Work Order Import is available only when the Work Order and
Advanced BOM feature is enabled.
We wanted to test this and have enabled the Advanced BOM feature. By following the below steps from the Help center:
Enabling Advanced BOM
An administrator must use the following procedure to enable the Advanced Bill of Materials (BOM) feature.
Important Bill of Materials impacts many areas within NetSuite. Before making Advanced BOM available to your organization, test it in your sandbox or release preview account. Any company customizations and third party integrations could also be affected.
To enable advanced BOM:
Go to Setup > Company > Setup Tasks > Enable Features.
Click the Inventory & Items subtab.
In the Inventory section, check the Advanced Bill of Materials box.
In the warning box, click OK.
Click Save.
Multiple BOM revisions are created for assemblies that were using BOM revision control. For more information, see Revision Control BOM Management. These revisions appear on the BOM record revisions subtab.
Important If you disable Advanced BOM after using it, NetSuite deletes any BOM and BOM revision records you created when Advanced BOM was enabled. NetSuite saves only legacy BOMs.
This last line in the help article suggest that the feature can also be disabled.
We have tested the new feature but unfortunately it is causing major issues with our current customizations. So therefore we would like to disable the feature again.
However if I now go to the Enable feature page the 'ADVANCED BILL OF MATERIALS' checkbox is greyed out and I cannot disable the feature.
I searched SuiteAnswers and find and article dealing with unable to disable the feature.
These however describe about the 'MANUFACTURING ROUTING AND WORK CENTER' feature. This is not enabled in our environment.
How can we disable the Advanced Bill of Materials Feature in our environment? Any idea's on this?
