How to Create Invoices from Sales Orders Without Advanced Billing in NetSuite?
NetSuite users can generate single or multiple invoices from a Sales Order even when the Advanced Billing feature is not enabled.
Short answer
NetSuite allows the transformation of Sales Orders into Invoices without requiring the Advanced Billing feature. For multiple invoices from a single Sales Order, ensure each invoice incrementally bills a portion of the total quantity until the full quantity is accounted for across all generated invoices.
Scenario
A NetSuite user needs to convert Sales Orders into customer Invoices. The organization does not utilize the Advanced Billing feature, but still requires the flexibility to generate invoices from Sales Orders, potentially even creating multiple invoices from a single Sales Order.
Solution
NetSuite provides the functionality to transform Sales Orders (SOs) directly into Invoices, even when the Advanced Billing feature is not enabled. If the requirement is to generate multiple invoices from a single Sales Order, it is crucial to ensure that each subsequent invoice incrementally bills a portion of the total quantity from the original Sales Order. This process continues until the entire quantity specified on the Sales Order has been fully billed across all generated invoices.
