Build Assembly Number Change

Hello. When we create a build, we always change the number to the same number we’ve assigned to the job. But in the last month or so, when we close the build, it reverts the number back to pre-populated number QB assigns when the window first pops up. We have to open the build again, change the number and save a close in order for the new number to stick. Does anyone know why it would be doing this all of a sudden? Oh, and  it’s sporadic… any suggestions on how to fix this would be very much appreciated.

Run the Verify/Rebuild Data utility. Did you encounter any error message?

I'll make sure you're able to fix the number sequence of your build assemblies in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT), @TiffaneyB. 

 

QBDT has a sticky feature that allows the program to automatically change the number of a transaction (in your case build assembly) sequentially following the most recently entered number. Having trouble with this may sometimes be caused by data integrity issues, to confirm we can run verify and rebuild data tool. Here's how:

 

  1. Close all the windows open in your QBDT program. 
  2. After that, navigate to the File menu and select Utilities.
  3. From there, click Verify data. 
  4. If you see the Your data has lost integrity message, proceed to rebuild the data.
  5. Go back to the File menu and select Utilities. Then, choose Rebuild Data.
  6. Select OK to back up your data.
  7. Click OK when you receive the message Rebuild has complete. Note: Perform the rebuild data thrice.

 

Once done, create a build assembly again and check if you can now see the correct number.

 

Additionally, I recommend ensuring your QBDT is updated to the latest release so you always have the updated components and fixes.

 

In case you have to adjust the quantity or total value of your product in QBDT to keep your inventory status accurate, you can visit this link for instructions: Adjust your inventory quantity or value in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

Feel free to leave a comment below if you have other QuickBooks-related issues. I'll ensure it will be resolved as soon as possible. Have a good one.
