We sell a service to our customers, which requires the purchase of a license from a vendor. Since this is a service, we need a project creation to minor the progress and resource utilization. Hence we used service for the resale item to create the project as well as the drop-ship purchase order from that. However, NetSuite does not support creating drop-ship purchase orders for service for resale items. As a workaround, we created a custom field in the purchase order and maintain the related dales order URL there manually for now to maintain the relationship. But we want the drop-ship PO creation to be automated. Is any workaround available to overcome this problem?
In NetSuite, drop-shipping can be managed using the following steps:
Set up Vendor Records: Create vendor records for the manufacturers, wholesalers, or other suppliers that you will be using for drop-shipping.
Create Drop-ship Items: Set up drop-ship items in your item list by selecting the "Drop-ship" item type and specifying the vendor associated with the item.
Create Sales Orders: When creating a sales order, select the drop-ship item and the associated vendor. This will generate a purchase order to the vendor, who will then ship the item directly to the customer.
Manage Purchase Orders: Monitor and manage purchase orders created for drop-ship items to ensure that the vendor is fulfilling the order as expected.
Process Fulfillment: Once the vendor has shipped the item, update the sales order with the tracking information and mark the item as fulfilled.
As the world's #1 cloud ERP solution for more than 25 years, NetSuite has helped businesses gain the visibility, control, and agility to build and grow a successful business.
