I am having issues when I build Assemblies that have a service or a non inventory item in them. I know having a non inventory items in an assembly is not a best practice, but it happens. Once these are built, they then show up in the COGS report as a credit. This then overstates my income. Any suggestions?

The way an assembly works with non inventory or service items is that when you build the assembly QB looks at the cost on the item screen and TAKES it out of the expense account listed on the item screen and adds that cost to the assembly. That is why the credit happens in COGS.

COGS is supposed to be the cost of the items sold, not the cost of other services, something else to consider.

Any update to my question below?

How do you record the cost of the non inventory item when it comes in? If you are writing a check and putting it in an expense account of any sort, you have already taken the deduction, so putting it into an assembly is "reclaiming" the cost you have already sunk into an expense account. The easy solution here is to change the noninventory item's expense account to whatever account you put the item into when you pay for it.
