NetSuite Admin Tips | Create a Search to Display Roles with No Users

edited Jun 2, 2025 2:40PM in NetSuite Admin Corner

Administrators from any industry may need to run a report to display roles with no users for various reasons, depending on the specific context of their organization and their responsibilities. Here are some common use cases:

  • Security and Access Control - Roles without any users could mean that permissions are not correctly assigned or that certain roles are not required. If unused roles have unexpected access privileges, this could be a security risk.
  • Resource Optimization - Administrators can make the most efficient use of their resources by knowing which roles have no users. These roles can either be eliminated or can be transferred to other users. This may result in a role-based access control system that is more effective and manageable.
