Mapping Order Location in NetSuite Connector Setup

TL;DR: This guide explains how to map order locations in the NetSuite Connector, allowing orders to be assigned to specific locations at both the header and line item levels. Proper mapping is crucial for ensuring that orders are processed accurately and efficiently.

How Does Order Location Mapping Work in NetSuite Connector?

When synchronizing orders with NetSuite Connector, you can assign each order to a particular location using a mapping setup. This process can be executed at either the order header or line item level, depending on your needs. Below are the steps to implement the mapping.

Steps to Map the Order Location

1. Log into the NetSuite Connector: Start by accessing app.farapp.com and logging in.

2. Select Your Connector and Account: Choose the appropriate connector and the related account from the available options.

3. Navigate to Order Mappings: Go to the menu and select Mappings > Orders.

4. Choose the Mapping Level: You have the option to map locations on two levels:

   • Order Header Level: Click the Order tab to access the Order Mappings page.
   • Line Item Level: Click the Order Item tab to navigate to the Order Item Mappings page.

5. Add a New Mapping: Click the Add Mapping button. This opens the Add NetSuite Mapping window.

6. Select the Location Field: From the NetSuite Field dropdown, select Location.

7. Finalize the Mapping: Click Add Mapping again and then Close. You will see a new row for the Location field at the bottom of the mapping list.

8. Configure the Marketplace Field: In the newly added row, select the appropriate value from the <marketplace or cart name> Field / Fixed Value column (for instance, Shopify Field / Fixed Value) to set the location and ensure it matches your source system.

9. Reload Lists if Necessary: If managing an Amazon connector, you might see an additional dropdown that allows you to specify if the mapping should apply to Fulfilled by Amazon (FBA) orders, Merchant Fulfilled Network (MFN) orders, or both. Make the necessary selection here.

10. Save Your Changes: Click Save to finalize your mapping setup.
