If you use the component yield preference, depending on your settings, the component yield calculation may result in a fractional quantity. You can use this setting so that the quantity for a component on a work order automatically rounds up to a whole number in base units.
For example, you have an assembly that requires 2 units of Component A. The component yield is 99%. To build 5 of these assemblies requires 10.1 units of Component A. Since you can consume components only in whole numbers, you cannot consume 10.1 units. Therefore, you need to round up to the next highest whole number in base units.
Check the Round Up Quantity as Component box to enable NetSuite to round up the quantity consumed for this item.
Clear this box if you do not want NetSuite to round up the quantity consumed for this item.
