NetSuite ERP for Administrators

By: Anthony Bickof

Overview of this book

NetSuite ERP is a complete, scalable cloud ERP solution targeted at fast-growing, mid-sized businesses and large enterprises. It's the smartly executed combination of financial management operations and built-in business intelligence, which enables companies to make data-driven and well-informed decisions. This book will help administrators become expert enough to be seen as the NetSuite leader at their company and to be able to advise department heads on specific processes, and strategic decisions. We start with an overview of ERP and NetSuite ERP, before going on to explain the built-in features to show the breadth of NetSuite ERP's product and its ease of use. We then discuss business aspects, focusing on the most important processes in NetSuite. Then you'll understand the implementation aspects that are generic enough to cover all the features. The focus then shifts to specific skills that you will need to administer for any system, such as roles, permissions, customization, and data imports. Moving on, you'll learn how to centralize the creation of search templates and give users the tools to pivot the data and expose it to the user in useful ways, such as on the dashboard. The book ends with checklists providing actionable steps that you as an administrator can take to do your job and support the application through new releases and troubleshooting problems.

SuiteAnswers


You access SuiteAnswers from within the help center by clicking the SuiteAnswers tab. SuiteAnswers comprises the help documentation as well as practical tips by the NetSuite support organization based on real questions that they have answered in the past. It is, therefore, more useful than Help itself, however, the number of results that are returned by a search can be a little overwhelming. Let's take a simple search for Advanced Revenue Management as an example. You'll see that some of the results of the search come from the help center, while others come from the SuiteAnswers knowledge base. If we drill down into a SuiteAnswers article, you'll see that it contains very practical information and specific tips to replicate in your own database:
