V9 - Build (assembly) interaction
Below is a listing of how SOS Inventory and QuickBooks Online interact with regard to build transactions:
A build transaction in SOS Inventory will:
- Decrease the inventory quantity and value of the input items.
- Increase the quantity and value of the output item.
- Cause the output item to inherit the value of the input items.
- Create a journal entry in QuickBooks that will: (1) decrease the asset account(s) or expense accounts of the input items; and (2) increase the asset account of the output item by the value of the input items.
edit_noteNOTE: If an input's item type is Non-inventory, Expense, Service, Labor, or Overhead in SOS Inventory, the build transaction results in a credit to the input item's expense account. The value used for this input in the build is the purchase cost in its item definition. If the input item is an Inventory or Assembly item type, the build results in a credit to the item's asset account. The value used for this input is based on the tracked value using the current valuation method. An output Assembly item will result in a debit to the asset account in its definition, based on the item's defined purchase cost.
edit_noteNOTE: If the build transaction is placed in a work center other than Finished goods, the input items are removed from inventory, but the output item is not placed into inventory because it is still work-in-progress (WIP). The journal entry reflecting the build will not be sent to QuickBooks until the build work center is changed to Finished goods. Work centers are available only on the Pro plan.
edit_noteNOTE: If the journal entry reflecting the build is edited or deleted in QuickBooks, this will not affect the build transaction in SOS Inventory.
