  • We use the "poor man" POS at our warehouse because of retail sales there are so infrequent. As suggested, do a cash sale instead of a sales order. Either type in the card name, expiration, and number on the payment tab or use a configurable swiper like some of the IDTech models. You can, for example, configure them to spit…
  • I noticed this a month ago, but ignored it because we don't use system notes much and because it seemed pretty obvious. I guess it wasn't :)
  • I've never come across negative Available on Netsuite How did you get there? You can get negative available if you have set your "Fulfull Based on Commitment" to "Ignore Commitment". It is also possible to get negative availability with vendor credit transactions and I'm sure with other similar transactions that affect…
  • We created a custom record type called "Shipment". It has the following fields: Ship/Flight# Carrier Status Tracking Number Departure Date Original Arrival Estimate Current Arrival Estimate Destination Orders The orders field is a link to list of purchase orders that have items fulfilled on the container. Purchase orders…
  • I agree reallocation has a nice interface. Simple and to the point. Now I just wish we could have a link directly from the item page to reallocate that item. For example, maybe all the numbers in the "Committed" column could have links to reallocate for that location and item.
  • I can't say for sure that it can handle 30k items, but we have 20k different items and haven't seen any problems.
  • We need this as well, but additionally we need to handle things from the "purchasing" side. In other words we need a transfer order that works like a purchase order, bringing in inventory that can be received into warehouse location.
  • There is a menu choice called "Reallocate Items" that lets you change which orders get the commitments. (On administrator role it's under Transactions>Inventory>Reallocate Items). In your case though it might be easier to go to Setup>Account>Setup Accounting>Ordering/Shipping. Change "Fulfill Based on Commitment" to Ignore…
  • This won't help if you are not technical, but I'll respond anyway because it might help someone... the opensource libofx project at http://libofx.coeus.ca/ has a basic program that will convert OFX to QIF. It is apparently primitive and some information might not be converted, so you'll need to test it against your data.
  • Ok I broke down and called support and I was missing something stupid. I didn't have the "Expand Accounts List" checked in Setup>Accounting>Accounts. I had looked carefully at all the checkboxes in Setup>Accounting and didn't see anything that looked appropriate. I guess I should have looked at the help messages for each…
  • Our order processing person had the same problem yesterday morning (Thursday), so I ran the accept payment on my login with Administrator role, didn't get the timeout and did get an error. Assuming the problem was a bad card we called the customer, re-entered another card number. Payment was then successful so we went on…
  • Ah ok. I'm pretty sure you can only have calculated price levels based on base price so you only have two options I can think of: 1. Make your base price = actual price and move the "WAS" price to a new price level. 2. Make a new price level that will be a % of online price and populate it using smbXML or webservices.
  • Is it possible to establish a price level that discounts the online price? So your online prices don't correlate to your base prices at all?
  • Har, I was wondering why my barcodes weren't printing :D Funny thing is they seem to scan correctly, but maybe it's just funny to me because I don't know anything about barcodes.
  • Correct, one time only. Once your existing inventory is distributed everything goes back to normal (all transactions will affect the specified location).
  • All your inventory will be in "limbo" after you turn on multi-location. You won't be able to access it from PO's, etc. until all the items have been distributed. Hopefully you didn't have any negative quantities :) I'm not sure why there's a delay of a day now.
  • Gobs of memory is your best bet here :) We also have large sales orders and PO's but with enough memory it can be tedious but still acceptable. Other things in the system break with more than 500 line items, at least on PO's, so if you start hitting that limit it would probably be better to break things up into multiple…
  • Thanks to both of you for your answer - I'll try with buying a faster PC and test on one pc before we buy a lot of new pc's - and maybe also try with firefox instead of explorer, which a lot of companies seems to be more succesful with....? When we had some cases with large orders causing problems I did some testing and…
  • "Receiving" a PO is a warehouse function. Even without advanced receiving there should be a button on the PO to "receive" it... then you mark all the items you actually received at the dock. Where you route the item after it's marked received is up to you. Closing a PO or closing individual line items on a PO is an…
  • Angela is correct of course, but another reason for closing a single line is if you know the item will never be received, e.g. if the vendor has discontinued production, etc.
  • On your invoice form you can turn on "Balance" under the Printing Fields tab and Body subtab. This will show the total balance due on the account (across multiple invoices) in the upper right of your form. You can also print a "mini statement" at the bottom of invoices, but I can't remember off hand where to turn it on.
  • I'm not a lawyer or CPA but I believe with a franchise system you will need to have different accounts for each franchise if you are using it for full accounting. I suppose you could share if you're just using CRM. I suppose you could also share inventory and order processing with multiple location inventory turned on, but…
  • Aargh. I was going to post another "Am I stupidly missing something..." type question about how to return inventory to a vendor. I guess we have to remove items from inventory using "Adjust Inventory"?
  • Are we being incredibly stupid or is it really the case that you can add, subtract and divide but not multiply when creating forumula columns in the report builder? Cheers Cheers! I was just going to post an identical question including the bit about being stupid. I needed to multiply and just had to laugh when I didn't…
  • Try http://old.openspf.org/wizard.html for SPF records at least. Also, your ISP/name registrar might not support SPF records.
  • I think this thread has what you're looking for: https://usergroup.netsuite.com/users/showthread.php?t=1212&highlight=SPF
  • Most blog apps can produce RSS feeds, which means they can already be read into the RSS portlet on a dashboard. Or am I missing something here? Going the other direction (from NS to a blog) is a bit harder but is there any point?
  • Last month we had 88% cart abandonment and 39% checkout abandonment. This probably comes from international customers because we don't do a good job of letting people know earlier in the process that we only ship to US, MX, and CA.
  • We have 28% checkout abandonment, but most of that seems to be due to international orders being placed and then they discover we only ship to North America. I haven't had any bad feedback yet from customers using the website... but we have pretty low volume.
  • I'm pretty sure it's not possible to do it inside your NS hosted web site. And, if you use any hosted forum solution, it probably won't be possible to integrate that with NS. So I believe the only solution is to set up your own forum on your own ISP. You can use vBulletin (same as NS on this forum and Skyytek on theirs) or…
