Best Practices for Internal NetSuite Developers - Consistency
This is for the developers who design the NetSuite application.
One very important User Interface (UI) design practice is consistency. Even if your design is a bit strange, the users can quickly learn it IF, and ONLY IF, you are CONSISTENT in your design.
With all due respect, and with the best of intentions, I have to say that NetSuite fails horribly in this design practice.
A HUGE MOTIVATION should be to maximize the reuse of code. This in of itself promotes consistency.
NETSUITE DEVELOPERS: Take a close look at the EMAIL facility that you provide for Transactions, and for Reports. For Transactions, I'm NOT talking about the main EMAIL button next to the PRINT button, but the EMAIL button on the Message tab.
