Exceptions to Customer Item Creation from Invoices
In certain cases, customer items are not created from invoices even when both the product and customer settings are enabled for customer item creation. Below are some known exceptions:
Multi tracked serial numbers
Creating a Customer Item when multi tracked serial tracked products is not supported in the current implementation.
If a product with multiple quantity serial number tracking is added to the invoice, a customer item will not be created. This occurs even if both the product and customer settings are configured to allow customer item creation from invoices.
Please add these manually if you choose to generate customer items for a multiple quantity serial number tracked product
Buildups
Infusion currently does not support generating Customer Items from Products within Buildups
After creating a Build Up, manually generate the associated Customer Item in the system. This ensures accurate tracking but can be time-consuming.
