Customizing a Form for Line-item Locations
When you enable the Locations feature, NetSuite sets a preference to allow line-item locations. For more information about this preference, read Inventory Management Preferences.
After you set line-item locations, you can select a location for each line on a transaction.
You must also customize a transaction form to show locations on each line.
If you use the Multi-Location Inventory feature and identify a preferred location on each item record, the preferred location defaults on transactions that show line-item locations.
To customize a form for line-item locations:
-
Go to Customization > Forms > Transaction Forms.
-
From the Custom Transaction Forms list, click Customize next to the type of form you want to customize.
-
On the Custom Transaction Form page, set the following fields:
-
In the Name field, enter a unique name for your custom transaction form.
-
In the Layout field, select a layout for your form.
-
Optionally, check the Form is Preferred box to make this form your preferred form.
-
-
Click the Sublist Fields subtab, and then check the box for the Location label.
This setting shows a Locations field when you view the form.
-
Click the Printing Fields subtab.
-
Click the Columns subtab, and then check the box for the Location label.
This setting shows a location field for line-items on transactions that you print or email.
-
Click Save.
The transaction you customized can identify a location for each line item. The preferred location for an item defaults in the Location field, but you can choose another location for the item.
