ONE MORE thing that is missing. We have a number of items that require TWO boxes to ship just one unit. For instance, we have a "post and pedestal base" sign stand that has a "base box" and a box for the "post". I know we could probably split it into two items and make a kit, but it is really one inventory item with one…

Also, changing the sorting order after the above mentioned 144 second search was completed took a few seconds short of another minute. There were only 38 matching records to reverse the sorting order on. Switching the sorting order on a list of 38 items would be an instant process even on a 25 MHz 486 from 1989. T

Yes, I've always thought that NetSuite needs to just index all of the data in every account. The mac hard drive data is 100% indexed as long as you pick that option when formatting your HD. How much storage space could it take? I'll pay for the extra storage. I don't really care as long as it increases performance. T

This problem gets much worse when dimensional weight gets involved. We have a large item that isn't very heavy. We have two boxes for that item. The small box is too small for it's size to matter and so UPS bases shipping solely on the items weight. I can ship it from coast to coast for about $12. The same item when…

We found the root of the problem. The PO had an "other charge for purchase" item. When removed from the PO, it didn't throw the error when saving. When put back on the PO, the PO again threw the error. We have used this item on thousands of POs in the past, so it is a new bug. Evan, can you get one of your people to enter…

The decision is easy for mac users. Chrome and IE8 aren't viable mac user options at this time (without using some sort of resource draining Windows emulation software). T

Same issue here. -Tom

We had this and simply edited the PDF form and shrunk the barcode down to the size that it should be. THe problem seems to be fixed. I wish all NS issues were that easy to fix. -Tom

It finally updated after about 2.5 hours. -Tom

Brett, You don't mention the apparent design flaw in the choices of "Transactions to Consider" when determining demand. Is that point also valid from what you have seen? NetSuite lets us define demand based on either "Orders" or "Actual Sales" at "setup->Accounting->Inventory Management Preferences->Transactions to…

NetSuite called again about this issue. It was an incredibly annoying call. The person could only repeat the definition of how NetSuite calculates PSL. She simply couldn't understand our situation or why NetSuite should ever consider how many units are fulfilled from each location in it's PSL calculations and not what the…

The NetSuite support person tried to tell me that inventory order amounts are only based on sales totals and NOT the location fulfillment history. Is that true? If so, that would make NetSuite useless for a franchise that needs inventory calculations for every store as it would stock every store as if it were the only…

We still can't find the item using our webstore search unless we search by the old incorrect spelling that was corrected over two hours ago. -Tom

Yes, we do have inactive locations. -Tom

NetSuite, can you please comment on how "daily demand" for any location can be calculated by only looking at either "Orders" or "Actual Sales" for that location and not considering fulfillment records? Our "Orders" and/or "Actual Sales" for some items may be 2 or 3 times greater than the number that we actually fulfill…

The same defect is true for items that are active, but put into webstore categories that are marked "inactive + offline". To make things worse, the webstore item search finds items in categories marked "inactive + offline". We filed one defect (Defect 162054) to remove items from inactive categories from the webstore. -Tom

Defect : 162603- Edit Parent Matrix item > Change the preferred vendor > Update Matrix > No changes were made on both parent and child matrix. SUMMARY: Edit Parent Matrix item > Change the preferred vendor > Update Matrix > No changes were made on both parent and child matrix. WORKAROUND: Edit each child matrix to update…

I'm not sure if this is related, but I'm also having difficulty updating item images. Sometimes it takes 10 minutes and that is understandable, but the last item has been about an hour and it still loads with the old image. Yes, I've cleared my cache and restarted my browser, so the old image being displayed in the…

Brian, what tags do you use to post code into a box like that? I use mac and the only option I have is "quote tags"... like this -Tom

I tried the customer center today and it had a new link called "price list". I clicked it and was surprised to see that the price list it generates shows items that we DON'T sell online. We have some items that are set to display online, but they aren't ready for "prime time". They are assigned to a webstore category…

I don't know if this is the same issue, but we couldn't change Matrix items earlier today. It appeared to save the changes, then we would return to the item (after saving it) to discover that the changes weren't saved. Twenty minutes later all saving of matrix items didn't work as saving anything would give an "unexpected…

In our case it was pulling the address from their PayPal account into NetSuite. We verified that fact with PayPal. We found that the customers weren't paying attention to what address they had stored in PayPal and they were old obsolete addresses. We were shipping it to the address provided and they would say "that is…

I found it. Use the NS "Customize text -> Messages" feature and just change "- Or use -" to " ". -Tom

I don't know what is different in our set-up or how it is possible that we could even have anything different, but we have no problems with "regular" paypal orders taken through the "regular" NS shopping cart ....but those PayPal express orders have been getting incorrect address like crazy. I think that it might not show…

Robin, I used your script to remove the PayPal express button. It worked fine, but it did leave the words "- Or use -" along the bottom of the cart. How did you get that out of there? Thanks, Tom

Does anyone know how to remove the paypal button that occasionally shows at the top of the "Shipping Address" page when a unregistered customer is going through the store check-out for the first time? -Tom

Today we received a bounced email (order confirmation email sent from netSuite) and the bounce message says: mail.symphonybuilders.net[24.233.183.30] said: 554 5.7.1 Blacklisted by black.uribl.com

I did it. Thanks for the tip. -Tom

We also received some of these bounced messages from yahoo users. Ours had this message... server refused to talk to me: 421 4.7.0 [TS01] Messages from 167.216.129.171 temporarily deferred due to user complaints - 4.16.55.1; see http://postmaster.yahoo.com/421-ts01.html

Are there people who are having problems who have already set up DKIM in NetSuite and have an SPF entry in their DNS record? YES, we have the "Add DKIM" preference check and have been using it for quite some time without issues. I don't know much about email spam filtering, but it looks like the spam filters are seeing the…
