  • One of the greatest features of ver 2008.2 is the ability to set access permissions by role for each custom field. Maybe one day soon NetSuite will offer this same capability for all built-in fields. We can only hope, and vote on the Enhancement Request. I will check on this ER# and report back.

  • We have been unable to login to our Sandbox account since about 10:00 am CST today (2/25/09). When I called back at 12:30 pm, Support provided us with an alternate login page: [COLOR=#800080]https://system.sandbox.netsuite.com/pages/login.jsp [/COLOR] [COLOR=black]However this also interrupted our Web Services testing in…

How does this happen?

  • I sincerely apologize for the blacklist issues many of you have encountered over the last week. NetSuite had issues with intermittent blacklisting over the past week. We are not currently blacklisted and are in contact with the organization that blacklisted us and are working towards a solution that will prevent future…

  • I have tried to run the Full CSV Export in 2008.2 it managed to get to 49% complete and then stated 135 files contained errors. Ian, Just so you know the "Full CSV Export" feature does NOT come close to actually exporting all records in your account. To be honest, this feature is a waste of time IMO. HTH.

  • I completely understand where your coming from and could grasp at this for a reason that they have not come out with one. However they have decided to spend time and moeny making it work on the IPhone which just does not jive with this theory! RJ Lynn The IPhone capability is 99% for marketing reasons. Everybody I know…

  • The worst part is that in most places NetSuite does NOT report what the units are for the qty displayed. This really needs to be fixed. It doesn't appear that the developers/testers have really ever used inventory. Just my 2c.

  • The NetSuite plate is very full. Plenty of critical bug fixes and long-waited-for, popular enhancements. I know this will not please the folks on this thread, but frankly, devoting effort to make NetSuite work on a mobile phone just doesn't make sense to me. Even if the mobile browser worked perfectly, there is just too…

  • Are you still experiencing this issue? We have a client with a similar requirement. Thanks, Clint Clint, It is working now. This issue was fixed within a few days of filing the issue.

  • Use of the SalesF**** word, or even its initials, is very offensive to NS. All such references will be folded, spindled, and mutilated. The user's post will be towed and crushed. ;) Proceed at your own risk. Competition is bad. :rolleyes: Half-life of this post: 30 sec :eek:
    in I've NetSuite uses their own software.... Comment by JMUnderwood Oct 28, 2008 11:01AM
  • Steve, I agree that the NS UI is way behind the current SOA. Some things, like using auto-sizing HTML tables, seems so basic, yet goes unused. Not to mention the more advanced CSS layout approach. What is very frustrating to me is the Form Designer -- it's a throwback to the DOS days of where you had to count characters…

  • Let me let you into a little secret. Use Safari all boxes are re-sizeable, it makes life so easy and now you don't need a Mac to run Safari. Paul, Does Safari play well with all the other parts of NetSuite?

  • I should have said I know that this is the primary key and therefore I cannot modify it in the csv files as to import will duplicate the items. What I would like to do is create a secondary field and then do a mass replace of the old Item Name/Number with the new one. Paul, You should be able to change the Item Name/Number…

  • To workaround it, we always save the employee record without access first. This is the behavior that NetSuite should provide automatically. If the customer has exceeded their user limits, then NetSuite should save the employee records without access and present a friendly popup that additional user licenses will be…
    in Who beats up their users like this??!! Comment by JMUnderwood Oct 11, 2008 8:38PM
  • Yes, NS behaves this way in many places and it always causes problems. . This is the real issue. NetSuite has a fundamental design flaw and/or failure to have/enforce a proper set of application groundrules. Every application development I have ever been associated with (Windows and Web) has had a application-wide design…

  • What is the problem with the item field? I don't believe there is a standard field called "Display name"? Evan, "Display Name" is a standard Item field. From the field-level help: You can enter an optional name for this item in addition to the Item Name. If you are integrating with a Yahoo! store, this field is imported…

  • I still struggle with so many NetSuite UI issues, some are MAJOR problems that drive my users nuts. . . . I'm just curious how the rest of you all feel about these issues. To me it feels like NetSuite is 2-3 years behind the curve on web UI style, richness and design. Steve, I couldn't agree with you more, except that in…

  • You could easily create a custom search to put on your dashboard that would do this. Not as convenient as Global Search, but at least it would get the job done.

  • Jim, I follow your posts quite a bit since I was at NetSuite in 2007 and you are not alone in experiencing this issue. We have also experienced it with a client this month on a OneWorld COA import of over 800 accounts. Clint, I'm not sure why you would be having this issue now. NetSuite filed and fixed Defect Issue# 152383…

  • Paul and Ray, I appreciate your counsel, but you're preaching to the choir here. The 500 accounts were developed by the company's corporate controller, who is also a CPA. It is NOT just an import of their existing COA. It is one he designed from scratch. I tried numerous times to convince him to keep the COA simple, and…
