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 customize a transaction form to show locations on each line.
After you identify a preferred location on each item record, the preferred location of the item defaults on transactions that show line-item locations.
To customize a form for line-item locations:
-
Click the Setup tab.
-
On the Setup page, under the Customization heading, click Transaction Forms.
-
Click Customize next to the kind of form you want to customize.
-
In the Name field, enter a name for your custom transaction form.
-
In the Layout field, select a layout for your form.
-
Check the Form is Preferred box to make this form your preferred form.
-
Click the Sublist Fields subtab and check the Location box.
This shows a Locations field when you view the form on-screen.
-
Click the Printing Fields subtab.
-
Click the Columns subtab and check the Location box.
This shows a location field for line-items on transactions 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 if needed.
