·2 min read·From NetSuite Release Notes PDF

Starting in NetSuite 2023.2, there are notable enhancements to the Manufacturing Mobile SuiteApp, improving user experience and customization capabilities. These updates are designed to streamline manufacturing processes and increase accessibility for mobile users. Here’s what’s new:

Key Enhancements

1. Changes to User Access

  • The Bulk Manager role will no longer have access to the Manufacturing Mobile app. This restricts specific user roles from interacting with mobile functionalities, emphasizing a more controlled access environment.

2. Work Order Display Control

  • Users can now control the number of work orders visible on the Select Work Order page. This is achieved through a new system parameter found in Manufacturing Mobile Preferences:
    • Past Work Order Days to be Shown: This parameter allows administrators to set the visibility of work orders based on their age. For instance, if configured to 30 days, only those work orders from the last 30 days will appear.

3. Custom Field Additions

  • The introduction of the SCM Mobile No Code Solution framework signifies a substantial leap in customization. This framework enables users to:
    • Add custom fields to pages without any coding.
    • Update custom records easily through the app, facilitating better data management on-the-go.

These enhancements not only improve operational efficiency but also enhance the capability for real-time data input and retrieval, making it an invaluable tool for manufacturing environments.

Who This Affects

  • Manufacturing Managers: Improved access control and data management.
  • Mobile Users: Enhanced functionality and customization within the app.
  • Administrators: Ability to adjust settings for work orders displayed to users.

Key Takeaways

  • The Bulk Manager role is now restricted from Manufacturing Mobile access.
  • Work order visibility is now customizable based on the age of the orders.
  • Custom fields can be easily added in the Manufacturing Mobile app without coding.
