It’s that time of the year again! As we embrace the holiday cheer, we want to share an important announcement regarding our holiday schedule. Our dedicated team of NetSuite Support Gurus will be taking a short break to recharge during the holidays, from December 24, 2024, to January 1, 2025. We’ll be back in full swing, ready to assist you on January 2nd. During the break, feel free to explore the wealth of NetSuite resources on our platform.
As we celebrate the season's joys, we are incredibly grateful for your ongoing support and engagement. Have a fantastic holiday break, and let's gear up for an incredible 2025!
Here are some examples to get your creative juices flowing.
"Did I pay vendor John Doe last month?"
"Take me to my largest sales order for this month."
"What invoices haven't been paid yet?"
Mass Change to Billable checkbox on line items on POs, Vendor Bills, and Vendor Credits
We recently realized that for a few years, unbeknownst to anyone in the company, the Items Billable by Default setting was set to on (checked) (Setup -> Accounting -> Preferences -> Accounting Preferences -> Time & Expenses Subtab -> Expenses Group). This was never intentional, and the result is over 240,000 line items on Purchase Orders, Vendor Bills, Vendor Credits, and a couple of other transaction types where Billable = Yes, so that the Items are now listed under Invoice Billable Customers.
We attempted to fix this with a CSV update, but that failed for a number of reasons (most of the transactions were in locked periods and this apparently is a G/L change, even those in open periods where the CSV gave a "success" and not a failure error, the field was not actually changed. Worse, it caused a recalculation of taxes resulting in a large number of transactions now being off by $0.01, and some foreign currency transactions being off worse because of currency revaluations. We fixed those.
