Why Choose NetSuite Manufacturing WIP & Routings Cloud Service?
NetSuite refers to a product that is produced by consuming other components as part of its manufacturing process as an Assembly Item, which can be easily created through the New Items menu. Assembly Items can also be linked with lot numbers or serial numbers, which ensures that complete traceability is strictly maintained for products that require it.
NetSuite offers a distinct capability where the same product can be produced in various ways at each location, with the ability to assign work in process and routing down to the specific location level. This allows for flexibility in the manufacturing process, such as choosing to perform a light assembly process and backflush materials in one location, while defining a routing and gathering labor costs at another.
To establish the manufacturing process using routings in NetSuite, it is essential to create the work centers that the routing will employ. These work centers can denote a machine, person, work cell, or department involved in the production process. The list of work centers serves as a crucial element in the real-time scheduling engine.
In NetSuite, generating a Work Order is an optional step in the manufacturing process. However, if a business needs to establish a schedule and communicate with the production team regarding what, when, and how to produce a specific item, or if they sell a customizable product with various features and options, generating a work order becomes an essential element of the process and marks the initial step in implementing a production control system.
By default, Actual Production Dates are automatically computed for all related work order transactions. This feature allows you to monitor the actual production dates, which aids in assessing production plans, identifying potential problems, optimizing production runs, and making data-driven decisions.

To operate a manufacturing business efficiently, it is necessary to have various methods to manage the release of work orders and other processes. The Advanced Manufacturing Admin Console provides all the required settings to configure NetSuite according to your environment.
The document used to communicate the production plan, routing steps, and schedule to production is called the Work Order Traveler. It can also be utilized to report the actual time taken for each operation and the amount of raw material consumed compared to what was expected. On the other hand, the Dispatch List provides a comprehensive list of materials needed for a work order.
When a Work Order is created in NetSuite, it triggers the automatic inventory commitment to production, which ensures a precise and up-to-date inventory status view.
The WIP and Routings module incorporates additional statuses to the Work Order, providing greater control over the release of work orders to production and enhancing visibility of production status. These statuses include Open Planned, Firm Planned, and Released. Mass update screens are available to production controllers for tracking the statuses and making mass changes based on various criteria such as customer, item, and due dates. Additionally, these statuses can be updated using the workflow engine to automate the process further.
The WIP Issue transaction is used to manually issue materials to the Work Order and move them into WIP as they are consumed. This functionality is particularly useful for manufacturing products that take longer to complete and have multiple work orders open across month-end.
The completion transaction serves various functions such as recording labor against an operation, issuing materials, recording scrap, and reporting completed products. NetSuite follows a two-step process for closing work orders, with the completion being the initial step. This step is typically carried out by someone in the production department and indicates when a product is finally finished and ready to be added to inventory.

NetSuite follows a two-step procesThe latter stage of the process is the work order closure, which enables collaboration among cost accounting, production, and finance teams to review the costs that have been associated with each Work Order before posting the costs to the GL.s for closing work orders, with the completion being the initial step. This step is typically carried out by someone in the production department and indicates when a product is finally finished and ready to be added to inventory.
The manufacturing cost template in NetSuite specifies the direct and indirect costs that are linked to a routing operation, and the accounts where these costs are recorded. When an operation is finished, NetSuite applies the relevant cost template to establish a baseline for calculating the product's cost, while keeping the system adaptable.
