What each NetSuite manufacturing module does, how it runs day to day, and where it stops.
NetSuite manufacturing is a set of features that work together: an assembly item with a bill of materials, a work order that consumes it, a routing that times it, planning that proposes it, and costing that prices it. These pages take one module at a time and answer the same four questions for each: what it includes, how it runs day to day, which setup decisions matter, and where it stops. For the whole picture in one place, read the NetSuite manufacturing guide.
If you are evaluating NetSuite, start with work orders and assemblies and bills of materials, because everything else builds on them. If you are already live and something is not working, the module pages on routings and WIP and costing cover the decisions that are usually behind it.
For choosing between platforms in the first place, see the manufacturing ERP guide. For what a rollout involves, see the implementation guide.
