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."

Setting tax code for sales order item through Rest API
We are using the REST API in order to create sales orders in NetSuite from an external system.
Everything works fine except when trying to set the tax code for the items. It simply does not work. The sales order is successfully created but the specified tax code is not applied to the items (and no error code is returned).
This is a sample of the payload we are sending to the REST API endpoint:
{
"entity": { "id": 1529811 },
"salesRep": 41,
"subsidiary": 7,
"memo": "TEST TAX CODE 5",
"currency": 4,
"item": {
"items": [
{
"item": { "id": 139, "taxcode" : { "id": 933 } }
},
{
"item": { "id": 1116, "taxcode" : { "id": 933 } }
}
]
}
}
I found an article in Internet where a person said that he was told by the NetSuite support team that setting the tax code for an item is only allowed when SuiteTax is enabled. Is that correct? Is this what is causing the tax code not to be set in our case (we are using the legacy tax calculation option)?
