Advanced Billing and Advanced Shipping
When you use the Advanced Billing feature and the Advanced Shipping feature together, order processing is based on whether each item on an order is able to be fulfilled or received.
Items are able to be fulfilled or received based on the status set on the item record. Some item types have a permanent status that marks them fulfilled or received. Other item types permit you to set the status for always fulfilling and receiving them or never doing so. You can set item statuses as follows:
-
Always Fulfillable/Receivable
-
Inventory
-
Assembly/Bill of Materials
-
-
Never Fulfillable/Receivable
-
Group
-
Description
-
Discount
-

-

-

-
Gift Certificate
-

-

-
To set the fulfillable/receivable status for an item, go to List > Accounting > Items, and click Edit next to a Gift Certificate, Other Charge or Service item record. On the Preferences subtab, check or clear the Can be Fulfilled/Received box, and click Save.
Once you set the fulfillable/receivable status for items, when you fulfill sales orders or bill sales orders, NetSuite processes the appropriate items based on the following:
-
If the order includes unbilled items
-
If the order includes associated billing schedules
-
If the order includes fulfillable items
-
