Hello everyone, I have a difficult issue with NetSuite that I need help with.

We are a company that manufactures and sells hair products.
We primarily buy components ourselves such as bottles, caps, pumps, and labels, which are needed for manufacturing the finished products.
We then send these components to an outsourced factory to manufacture the finished products.

In NetSuite, we set up a Bill of Materials (BOM) for each finished product we manufacture. For example, the BOM of finished product PS0030 consists of 1 bottle, 1 cap, and 1 label.
When we want to manufacture the finished product, we issue an Assembly PO (Outsource) to the factory, select the finished product we want to manufacture, choose the appropriate BOM, and specify the item for the PO, which represents the factory's labor. The labor charge essentially covers the mixing of all raw ingredients (purchased by the factory) and the filling of the empty components we provide, resulting in the finished product.

Howdy, Stranger!
