NetSuite Connector Deployment to...

TL;DR Opening

This article addresses common questions regarding the deployment of the NetSuite Connector in production. It covers sync frequencies, troubleshooting sync issues, and what happens when items are deleted.

How Often Does NetSuite Connector Sync?

The sync frequency varies based on the sync type and direction. For a comprehensive list of sync intervals, refer to the section on Sync Frequency and Directional Flows.

Why Are My Products Not Syncing Even With Correct Mappings?

If you encounter an issue where products fail to sync, check the error message provided and take the necessary corrective actions. After addressing the issue, allow the sync to run again. As an alternative, you can manually resync the product through NetSuite Connector.

Why Are My Products Taking So Long to Update or Sync?

When real-time price and quantity sync is enabled and numerous items are flagged, the synchronization process will prioritize these updates first. Consequently, subsequent updates for additional items may be queued, leading to delays in reflected changes.

Why Are Some Child Items Not Syncing With the Item Family?

Assuming no errors in item families and that the setup is correct, missing child items should appear after the next scheduled product sync. If the issue persists, reach out to NetSuite Customer Support for assistance.

If I Delete an Item From NetSuite Connector, Does It Delete the Item From the Storefront or NetSuite?

No, deleting an item from NetSuite Connector does not affect its existence in the storefront or in NetSuite. If the item is still marked for syncing with NetSuite Connector, it will continue to sync in future cycles.

Products may not sync if initial errors occur; it's essential to resolve these before reattempting.
Real-time sync can lead to delays if many items are flagged simultaneously.
Missing child items should sync in subsequent cycles, barring setup errors.
