You're correct with opening each pending build assembly, then changing and saving the date will help unlock, @ArtGraham.
Currently, the only way to deal with this is by opening each pending build assembly, then change the date. I know this would be beneficial when we're able to change all the closed-month pending build assemblies.
Here's how:
- Go to the Inventory menu at the top.
- Select the Inventory Center.
- Choose the assembly item, then open the pending build.
- Adjust the date under the Date drop-down menu, and then select the Remove Pending Status button.
- Click Build & Close.
I've got you an article to learn more about Inventory Assembly Items in QuickBooks: Create, build, and work with inventory assembly items.
I'd also encourage visiting our Firm of the Future website to check for product updates and feature enhancements.
