It is there and you have access to it. See my previous post for how to access it. They said..."we had some last minute glitches in repository, so we moved it to production account" Now, i want someone else (braver (and more naive) than me) to install it first and let me know how it goes. -Tom

Well, has anyone tried it yet? If so, how did it go? T

Apparently beta testing didn't "go well".

I thought NS had the "Test Website Content" feature where you could create a new domain to deploy stuff to. I'd be interested in knowing where that is and if it requires the multi-domain add-on. I checked with my account rep and he said that a Sandbox account is what is needed. I then got the price for a Sandbox account…

I've heard "End of April" if beta testing goes well.

We will be offering one click publish to Google Base, Shopping.com and Shopzilla by end of month via our new product "SuiteFeeds". Oh, that is great news!!! I commend you NetSuite. Oh wait. I thought that post was from NS and they were beefing up their core Ecommerce functionality to match all of the other Ecarts. It is a…

Another good tip Rob, I checked and they don't offer a https image at Shopping.com or at the bbb. It is displayed as part of our sidebar navigation in our site's theme. Is there a way to display that shield in the sidebar of our site and not have it display during webstore checkout? Tom

Setup->Customization->install bundle-> Then filter by: Location= Production Account Account ID = 3519604 Keyword= Reference They said "Let me know if you run into issues. We are working on updating the doc..."

I'm told that it will be available tomorrow.

Yes. I'm aware of the things possible with customizations, but I think that too often NS bails on a feature as soon as some expensive and/or time consuming workaround involving Java programmers an/or 3rd part development services becomes available. They've been extremely slow to add auto-google-sitemaps because a NON-auto…

Never mind, I found HTTPS versions of the bbb and Shopping.com graphics. Thanks again, -Tom

In "Customize Text", on the "Headings" tab, I edited the cart progress text across the top of the checkout area so they are links. Nice tip! Thanks, Tom

Version 2012 Release 1 includes the following six enhancements to Web Site features: • SuiteScript Server Pages (SSP) Applications (Beta) • Reference Cart and Checkout • Web Site Email Templates • Customize Web Site Text Groups • Bulk Edits of URL Redirects • Direct File Editing T PS: "Reference Cart and Checkout" provides…

Netsuite is being left in the dust with this feature being added to most every other cart on the market. This isn't the only missing ecommerce feature. There are many of them (like faceted navigation) and each year the list gets longer, not shorter. NS has been evolving the web-store portion of NS at a fraction of the pace…

The 2009.2 release is going to include many of the top ecommerce enhancement requests, focused primarily around checkout. This is great news unless it is fairly limited to checkout. It should have lots of SEO improvements like fixing of the encrypted IMAGE URLs in the webstore that excludes NS users from any free Google…

Evan wrote on 6/2007: We are looking at upgrading checkout in our next year's release. This would include significantly more customizationa s well as a one-page checkout option. John Doyle wrote on 3/2009: Per Evans quote above (june 2007!), it is now very apparent that NS has more or less stopped development of the…

I also agree. simple is best everywhere (from and back end) and Amazon has a one page check-out (after you are a customer) and it is part of the reason that I prefer shopping there. T PS: I looked at the ecommerce service that Chris mentioned. It looks like their TOP level of ecommerce is only $99/month. It also says…

Baruch, I assume that each site will have it's own "site theme" preference (not one global site theme for all sites). I can see the "Multi Site feature" helping as a testing tool. I don't see how it will help us as a staging tool. Lets say that I want to add a new line of items and they are matrix and can't be imported.…

I don't use or care about those two features as much as the lacking ones that I mentioned. We had no problem keeping our Yahoo store "clean". We pay more than twice what we did for that other service that you mentioned ...now I am expected to pay even more to get a non-user friendly "staging area workaround" in NS. T

OK, good ideas, but the multi-site feature is still best suited for multi-sites and not for a staging area... 1. it still cost extra for staging using multi-site (maybe everyone should get one staging/test site for free) ..as most other ecommerce offer staging and I have yet to see one that charges extra for staging. 2.…

One Page Checkout. Now that would be intuitive, "Amazon.com-like" experience for our customers. Tom http://www.netsuite.com/portal/industries/ecommerce.shtml

Our cart abandonment has been 8.5% and checkout abandonment has been about 1.25% for the last quarter. So, looking at what others are reporting, I guess we can't complain about those two issues. I wonder how much this varies based on what you type of product you are selling and on what channels you are advertising. Poorly…

Now, if in v11 I could switch an item from a multiple child Matrix to a "one available item matrix" and make the pull-down option menu go away (on the web store) so it behaves like a standard non-matrix item. Also switching from non-inventory to inventory would be nice. Sorry, that doesn't help with your question. T

Baruch Goldwasser, I have been trying passing a Partner ID in a "Promotional URL". I created "partner123" and I created a Promotional URL and set it so that "Additional Parameters" is set to "partner=partner123". I clear cookies in the browser and went to the Promotional URL. I register as a NEW customer using the fake…

I recently looked into NON-NS search "utilities" that i could plug into any e-commerce site (including NS). I saw one feature in a "search utility site" that would be nice in our NS in-site searches...that is a search that learns what items sell better related to any specific search term and shows those results first. So…

Image resizing would be nice. Not global, but rather a per-layout setting. Automated Google sitemaps are over-due. ... -Tom

Testing environment (how can I possibly play with "setup -> Customization ->web site themes" without a testing environment)? I'm afraid to ask for anything else because it always seems that e-commerce features that I PUSH HARD for are added to "add on modules" even though I already purchased the "full NetSuite". I asked…

Matthew, this thread is for e-commerce related NS "dreams". Lets start a thread about what you would like NetSuite to add regarding ecommerce features

Our "cart abandonment" and "checkout abandonment" are both up this week. What do other people average. We get about 4% "cart abandonment" and "checkout abandonment" of .75%. T
