Mapping Payment Methods Directly...

Mapping payment methods within NetSuite Connector is crucial for tracking and managing transactions effectively. This process allows you to align payment options from your marketplace or cart directly with those in NetSuite, ensuring that each order is accurately represented in your system.

How Does Payment Method Mapping Work?

In NetSuite Connector, each payment method you have—such as Cash, Visa, or Check—must be mapped to a corresponding method in NetSuite. This mapping process allows for greater accuracy in tracking payments on your orders.

Mapping Options

When you set up payment methods in NetSuite Connector, you have the following options:

Do Not Post: This is the default setting. If a new payment method comes from your marketplace or cart, it will generate an error until you manually map it. Subsequent orders will use this mapping automatically.
Not Mapped: In this option, the payment method will not be included in the order within NetSuite.

How to Map Payment Methods from Orders

You can directly map payment methods from an order if you encounter an unmapped payment method. However, please note that this approach does not work with Amazon orders.

Steps to Map Payment Methods Directly:

Log in to app.farapp.com.
Select your intended connector and account.
Navigate to Data Flow > Orders to open the Payment Methods page.
On the right side of the order, click the Action Menu (represented by a pencil icon).
Select Edit to open the Order Details window.
Click on the Mapping tab.
From the NetSuite Payment Method dropdown, select the appropriate payment method you wish to associate with this order.
- If necessary, refresh the NetSuite payment methods to ensure all options are available.
Once the mapping is complete, click Save. This will set the current order and all future orders with the same payment method to use the established mapping.

Key Considerations

Ensure you refresh payment methods if new ones are added to NetSuite to avoid potential mapping issues.
This direct mapping method is effective for manual adjustments on individual orders, aiding in order processing efficiency.

Key Takeaways

Payment methods in NetSuite Connector must be mapped for accurate order tracking.
Mapping can be done directly from orders or through a Payment Mappings page.
Refresh payment methods in NetSuite Connector to ensure new methods are available for mapping.
