I personally don't need the back-end functionality at all. I can go get a quote from FreightQuote after the order comes in. I just want something for our webstore customers that is close to real-time rates. It would need a variable for our discount. T

deisouss, You say "FedEX real-time rates", but you don't say what method of FedEx. Are you saying that you use FedEx GROUND rates discounted 50% and then add a $.15 per lb handling fee and it comes out close to LTL rates? I assumed "ground", but just wanted to clarify. -Tom

In the PaceJet webinar they said that they could integrate with a broker (like freightquote). I want to know how the LTL shipping estimates work within web store. thanks for the info. -Tom

<bump> Anyone with feedback on Pacejet? -T

HERE is the FedEx Freight XML info http://www.liberty-flag.com/john/Fed...g_Feb_2004.pdf Here's the UPS info for their XML response http://www.liberty-flag.com/john/UPS...S_DevGuide.pdf Looks like some NS developer could use these to creating a FedEx Freight or UPS Freight Shipping add-on for NS. T

Another NetSuite user told me how they got accurate or "accurate enough" shipping costs. IT was very time consuming and limited, but it will work for some users. What they did was... They took the FIRST digit in each zip code and made it a zone. So, they had zones 0 through 9. If an item ships from their address in New…

Has anyone used this company... http://www.pacejet.com/Company/Solutions/PacejetShippingandLogisticsforNetsuite/tabid/171/Default.aspx

Could a solution be made as a Custom Widget or a SuiteBundle?

Vote for Enhancement 135427. it says... Setup>Accounting>Accounting Preferences>To have a preference setting that provide the option, to send Order Fulfilled Confirmation Emails, ONLY when the fulfillment has a TRACKING NUMBER.

Ozlink is a good product, but we don't ship enough to justify it. We do pay enough for NS to ask for it to do everything that we need. We use NS label integration. We just want a way for NS to send "Order Fulfilled Confirmation Emails" with a tracking number ...and we don't want it to send any "Fulfilled Confirmation…

Could this be set-up as a "alert" rather than using the standard "Order Fulfilled Confirmation Emails" feature? -Tom

Yes, we switched to using non-inventory items for resale. I know that calling a service an "item" seems counterintuitive (especially when you could be using an item called "Services for Resale"), but that is the way to go if you want a PO to be generated to fulfill a resold service from a "service providing" 3rd party. -Tom

Ahh "Other Lists" has been changed to "Accounting lists" and the instructions are lagging behind the changes. I see that the area has custom "Customer Messages" ...but they left out "Vendor Messages". Thanks, Tom

What about those default messages like "thank you". Where do we adjust those? The NS help docs said ... 1. Go to Lists > Accounting > Other Lists > New. 2. On the Add to Other Lists page, click Customer Message. 3. Enter the message in the Customer Message field. You can enter up to 100 characters. 4. Click Submit. ...but…

Non Inv, yes... but technically it is a service that we are reselling. What is "Service for Resale" for? NS instructions say... Services for Purchase – services your business buys but doesn't sell to customers Services for Resale – services your business buys and then sells to customers Services for Sale – services your…

Your assumption is correct. You must use an integrated shipping service when the fulfillment loads. Note that most of the package fields become disabled and empty when you don't use an integrated shipping label, because these fields are specifically 3rd party carrier fields. I just talked to support about this one. His…

On thing in our work flow... All web orders are UPS-non-integrated. That is because 80% are drop-shipped and not shipped at our warehouse using the integrated shipping. The ones that are fulfilled at our warehouse are changed from UPS-non-integrated to UPS-integrated when we create the fulfillment record. It works fine…

Nice carpet. I can see every little fiber. We can't get the feature to work either. We turned on the preference to include Reference Fields and NOTHING changed. We set the desired reference fields to "SO number" and "PO#". -Tom

Evan, I get "ERROR: Field Not Found" when i try your solution. What could be the cause? For our custom "cust_shipping_phone" body field, we defaulted it to nvl({shipphone},{custbody_XXX}) where the latter is a non-stored custom transaction body field with the phone number sourced from (entity->phone) field. I also tried…

I found the issue. I hadn't applied custbody_XXX to all of the various types of transactions. It now appears to work. Thanks for the help. I would have NEVER gotten this on my own as I wouldn't have known (entity->phone) and not (customer->phone) and other details just wouldn't have occurred to me. T

Is there a way to make it default to {shipphone}, but if {shipphone} is empty then default to the phone number on the customers record? Thanks, Tom

I would do a new SO with zero cost on the line items and zero for shipping (if that is the terms for your damage replacements). One could also just send the replacement (without a SO) and then do an inventory adjustment, but it would leave less of a record of what transpired. T

PS: This is important because our "small widget box" isn't oversize ....but our "big widget box" is oversize (according to UPS).

Sorry if this hijacks your post, but MCO ...can our vendor ship 3rd party on our UPS account (using our SO number as the reference number) and then have the tracking number automatically brought into the NS fulfillment record? Can that be done with 3rd party software (like OzLink)? T

Software like NRG's solution is no longer needed to print to thermal label printers from a Mac. No special software is needed if you are running mac OS 10.5.2 or higher. See... http://www.slideshare.net/chrislars/nrg-software-mac-supports-zebra-printers-284451 You would need the Shipping label to print to a PDF and then…

How does the shipping cost in the fulfillment record relate to the SO? We will be shipping our item in house starting in about 6 weeks. I won't want to adjust what my customer paid. If the customer paid $100 and we get to fulfillment and our UPS cost is $50, then I have no desire to adjust what our customer paid. Does the…

WHERE is the NS User Guides that covers UPS label integration and other SO fulfillment topics? I go to... https://system.netsuite.com/app/help/helpcenter.nl?topic=help&whence= I open every "user guide" looking for the comprehensive NS shipping guide. I found no User Guide for shipping sales orders and UPS integration…

So basically a customer will place an order at say 10pm at night...then at 10.05 they get an email with the USPS tracking number on it. Then in the morning we just come into the warehouse and grab the orders off of the printer and start picking and sticking. I don't understand how a "automated attendant" could work with…

vote for issue 106570 to expose the Residential check-box to web store customers. I know that it is disappointing that issue 106570 wasn't addressed in v2007.

So, we should make two custom fields. ..to have it show up on PO, source from = "ship to/phone" and to have it show up on SO, source from = "Entity/phone"
