Depends on the report, but usually you'll see the child as indented/nested values for the parent. You can make an item a child of another after creation, yes.

Admin has access to "Delete All Data". 'nuff said. Give them Full Access at best, but you should probably taylor a custom role for their needs.

Sub-items have no accounting impact. It is only a way to roganize your data. Now, in your case, if the IFR product kept as seperate stock from the non-IFR stuff, or can you lump everything into one stockpile (for a single given SKU, of course)?

Thanks Oliver, they are separate stock, but my main reason for this is for organizing the price lists. currently it takes about 35 double sided sheets of paper, doing this will reduce the # of pages practically in half!! I don't visualize how this will reduce the size of the output, you'll still have the same number of…

Hi Brian, Thank you for sharing that information, this is very interesting. As comparative, what is the differences, or benefis, of this custom record and workflow based approach versus using the "Help Desk" checkbox on Cases?

Best Practice is to set up your entities in a parent/child fashion reproducing your subsidiary hierachy. In terms of management, NS has not yet released any functionality that would auto-synch changes between your entities. This can be accomplished using scripting, however.

[edit: realized I just repeated myself, sounded silly. Removing post]

You want to look at Billing Schedules, I think

Perhaps an overly obvious question, but did you set up your 2012 fiscal year uder Setup->Accounting->Manage accounting periods?

Netsuite's tax engine does not support what you are describing. I would direct you to look at Avalara's products, or consider having your own logic custom-coded.

That's going to be tough. Invoice have only a single Due Date, and aging will base off of that.

What is the best way to close old purchase orders for items that were ordered, items were received but the bill was not received against the PO? The bill was entered and paid separately from the PO so therefore, the PO remains "open". Uh oh. Big no-no. Were the POs for inventory items? If so, you have double-booked the…

We custom code it for a client. Not sure it's exactly the same, but they deal in pretrolum-based products and need to charge excise. We added a script on orders that detects the state, calculates Excise based on that state's rules, and adds a service item to charge the excise amount.

EDI is Web Services. That is typically the most robust and complete solution - it is also the most expensive and complex to set up. So, depends on what ROI you intend to have from this setup.

Hi Carlos There are many possible solutions, so I'll just stick to the simplest ones - 1. You can grant your resellers Customer Center access to your NS account (this is FREE - does not require extra licenses). They will be able to enter SOs directly. That should make them happy :) Alternatives include making a small,…

Best practice in this case would be whatever you prefer. There is no financial impact to tying the the SO to the Opportunity. On one hand, you have a best practice that says "No data duplication" but on the other you may want all your info in one system. Depends on your reporting needs, really. Do you plan on running some…

Before OneWorld came around, people basically used Locations (or Departments) as the de-facto way of seperating companies. So, it does kind of work. But, it gives a VERY light approach to segregating data. From your brief description, I think it's a bad fit. You will fall exactly of your scenario of discovering a few…

You can file a case with Netsuite support and ask that question. They usually answer questions pretty quickly.

Your understanding is correct. What you could do is add a custom field on the Deposit of type list/record, listing Transactions. You can then tag the Deposit has belonging to a certain Sales Order. This won't actually have any real impact, but may help keep things clean.

Is it short enough to fit in a Disclaimer section when you customize the form?

The companies that I have seen manage (or try to) their own support, it works best when it is the IT group that does it. Note that only very large organizations are able to do it this way. Most mid-size companies have a single champion.

StrikeIron is one of the enterprise-level tools used for address verification. I don't believe they have a plug-n-play module for NS though, I've seen it get custom integrated though.

Home->Set Preferences->Transactions-> clear the Email Using HTML checkbox OR On Customer record, set Email Preference to PDF

Create a new account, move the old transactions into it and delete the old account. Correct, no other way.

Hi Malin, In my experience, most new One World customer want 1 customer across subs because they are still in the non OW mindset and really don't understand why they'd need seperate customer. Once I explain it to them, and present the OW way of doing things and show how reporting and etc still works, they are usually ok. I…

I would actually LOVE to have a list if that's something you have Evan!

Well, it depends. If you restrict the developper to a non-admin role, you will need a second person, with the role of Admin, to act as deployment manager. The reason is that only an Admin can tick in the "Run as Admin" box on suitescript deployment record, and you almost always need that box ticked in. You'll also almost…

Not possible, sorry. It is a rule in One World that a customer can only belong to one sub. I would return to the root cause of why the client wants a single customer report and work on attenuations at that level.

No, that is specifically disallowed in One World. Standard practice would be to have a Parent record, with a child for each subsidiary. It's not functionally necessary at all to do this, it's just a question of keeping things clean and organized.

Weeeelll If a script is running as Admin, a malicious or especially curious programmer could make a script that emails him or otherwise returns him any information in the system, since the script is admin. So, you really do need to either go with super-developpers or go with a developper + deployment manager process.
