CRM Enhancements in NetSuite 2025.1 Release Notes

Starting in NetSuite 2025.1, several enhancements have been made to the Customer Relationship Management (CRM) features that aim to improve security, performance, and partner interactions. This release introduces key updates that strengthen case management processes and partner permissions.

What's New in CRM for 2025.1

Security Enhancements to External Case Response Page

The security improvements introduced in the External Case Response Page for Case Management are designed to ensure that user interactions are protected from unauthorized access. These enhancements also streamline user authentication processes to increase data integrity and security.

Best Practice Tip: Always ensure that your security settings are reviewed and implemented according to your organization's compliance requirements to take full advantage of these enhancements.

Changes to Performance Metrics for Support Cases

This update includes revisions to how performance metrics for support cases are calculated and displayed. As a result, users can expect to see more accurate performance reporting that aids in evaluating the efficiency of the support team. This change helps organizations to better manage and respond to customer inquiries effectively.

// Example of querying support case metrics
search.create({
   type: 'supportcase',
   filters: [
      ['status', 'anyof', 'Resolved']
   ],
   columns: ['priority', 'status']
});
