  • To "hide" the standard Support tab.... . . . Obviously, this could be a huge problem for the next Netsuite administrator when they can't find the standard Support Button :eek: . So you may want to make a note somewhere regarding this setup. (or not :p) Lee, Thanks for sharing this tip. It looks very interesting. One…
  • Right now there is no way to remove the support tab entirely. The only way to do something similar would be to create a new center from scratch with only the tabs you need. . Luke, Unless something has changed with Ver 2007, even when you create a custom role with a custom center, the custom center still has the standard…
  • EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) has been around for many, many years, pre-dating the Internet. It's a protocol for exchanging orders and invoices in a purely electronic way that gets things done quickly, accurately, and economically. Many major manufacturers, distributors, and resellers (like Wal-Mart) either require EDI…
  • Thanks for the explanation Long. So, if someone orders a specific UPC, does it mean that they might get one of several different items (all very similar and equivalent value, but have some differences)? If so, you might do a search to find another thread that had similar issues. As I recall, they were computer resellers…
  • I am getting started with NetSuite and going through the Company setup options. I cannot find any Help documentation on the merits and/or pitfalls of using auto-generated numbers for customer records. If anyone is willing to share their experience with auto-generated numbers, I would appreciate it. Thanks. Camille Camile,…
  • We are looking at adding this preference for customers and vendors in a future release. We will actually make it a multi-select so you can choose more than one, if a customer wants it e-mailed with printed backup, e.g. Take that Intuit! Thanks, -e Good shot! Glad to hear it! :)
  • IMO Quickbooks has the best solution to this. They have check box on the customer record for invoice preference: e-mail invoice, fax invoice and mail invoice. Would it not be possible for Netsuite to provide this same option? Thanks. A great solution! And so intuitive! Of course, Intuit is known for producing software that…
  • Our company uses a umbrella UPC system (more than one item can have the same upc but different item code) which makes things a little awkward for some of our retailers who are use to receiving by upc.. Long, Sorry I don't have any suggestions. But I do have a question. ;) If you don't mind sharing, I'd be most interested…
  • Well, we've had a lively discussing with lots of great ideas about the desirable features of a workflow module. Did this achieve anything? Does NetSuite plan to release any time soon a useful workflow module? Or was this just an exercise to vent some steam?
  • Needless to say this work would need to be prioritized with all the other enhancements customers are asking for. We will publicize the ER # so people can vote, but as an informal survey, would the people on this thread say this is, say, in their top 3 enhancement requests for NS? Thanks, -e My Top 3: [LIST=1]…
  • In the end I decided that what I REALLY want is for existing functionality to be corrected and/or improved first: I completely agree Cecelia. That's why my first two are Project Mgt and UI -- both wihch need to be corrected and improved. It makes a lot of sense to stop releasing new features, and clean-up, fix, debug, and…
  • Problems with Purchase Order Workflow I'm not sure if the current discussion will address the serious issues with the PO Workflow or not. Please see Need Clarification on Purchase Order Routing for details. The main point is that out-of-the box the NS PO workflow doesn't seen to work well for very many customers. A search…
  • Automating workflow is NOT a new concept, as evidenced by the numerous references to other tools. I doubt that most NetSuite customers are in some unique category. IOW, don't reinvent the wheel! Why not start as high up on the food chain as possible, and benefit from the mistakes and inventions of others? :D Step #1 should…
  • Internally we think it will be impossible for us to come up with all the "actions" that people will need in a workflow module. We really believe that this is where SuiteFlex comes in. We would like to build an architecture for workflow where there's a UI to put together workflows that are made up of actions based on…
  • Bill, Great subject! Great thread! I hope you get a lot of responses here. Attn NetSuite Admin: Could you please correct the typo in the title of this thread so we will be able to find it later via search? Thanks.
  • [quote=atmospheredjsIs it possible for me when I email out certain clients to change the email account that the email comes from??,[/quote] Take a look at Home > Set Preferences > Profile There should be a field there to enter an alternate email address.
  • As of right now i have 159,000 items (some of these are Kit and matrix items) Krysta, WOW! :eek: That's a lot of items! Now you have me curious: [LIST=1] [*]How is NetSuite performance with this many items, like when you are selecting an item for a sales order/invoice? [*]How do you find the item you want quickly/easily?…
  • If anyone else would like to be able to run and export a report of your account configuration (enabled features, settings, options, preferences - everything), please vote for enhancement #70387. This sounds like a great ER! It has my vote. EDIT: Wow! This ER is over 3 years old! SLT Age = 1158.
  • Krysta, Thanks for sharing. It's good to know that NetSuite can handle that large of load on the Item list. I don't know, but I wouldn't be surprised if you have more items than most, if not all, NetSuite customers.
  • There are many online file storage/management solutions available. Do a Google search on "web based file storage" or "online file storage" and you'll get many hits. Here's one I found that is fairly inexpensive but provides some very nice features:[INDENT]http://www.filesanywhere.com/ [/INDENT]I can NOT vouch for this…
  • Ditto what Andrew said. Ditto what Ray said. And my own opinion: it's insane, absolutely insane to charge that much for data storage. Didn't anyone at NetSuite do any pricing research? Or was this intentional, intended to discourage customers from using NetSuite for data storage??? Cecelia Cecelia, I couldn't agree more!…
  • We can't store information for free. Either it is stored on our general use production servers, or for a (probably significantly) lower cost it can be stored on sandbox. The problem with storing years and years of data on the general use servers, is it slows operations down and makes the servers considerably more expensive…
  • We are starting work on our release for next year. This release will include work orders, and raw materials will get committed to work orders. We are currently talking to customers about our proposals, and will make sure the Product Manager in charge of this feature notes your interest and contacts you if appropriate.…
  • Fred, This sounds very interesting. Do you use any special file management software on the GoDaddy web site?
  • <snip> we are expected to use less then 10 GB of data or pay $15,000 per 10 GB per Year over that initial ten. </snip> WOW! :eek: In today's world 10 GB is very small amount of storage. A hosting/storage fee of $1,500 per GB is about 10 times the typical amount for DB (like SQL Server) storage. I've never seen anything…
  • interesting discussion. does anyone know offhand how to create an admin role for a programmer - someone with full script access and so on, but without say the ability to see the P&L and B/S? Ben, I had the same need about 18 months ago, and I could not find a builit-in role that provided the necessary access but with the…
  • My solution: Start with the Full Access role, customize it to remove permissions to the areas you don't want the developer to have. . I just remembered -- NetSuite doesn't allow you to customize the Full Access role, so you will have to start with something else, or create a new role from scratch (painful). I think I…
  • You may want to get a quote from SpringCM before you get too excitied. It is much more than just document storage, and has a price to go with it. Just my 2c.
  • For instance we (at skyytek) indvertantly was producing contacts at high resolution and uploading them to the transaction itself. This increased our useage by almost 300mb per file. We spotted this and now have these in low res. Ray, Can you please explain "high res" vs "low res" contacts? Thanks.
