·2 min read·View Oracle Docs

TL;DR

This article explains how to resolve visibility and editability errors for specific fields in the NetSuite Connector, particularly the custbody_fa_channel and custbody_fa_channel_order fields. Correcting these issues is crucial for successful order processing.

Understanding the Issue

The custbody_fa_channel and custbody_fa_channel_order fields are essential for the NetSuite Connector's order processing functionality. If you experience errors despite having the NetSuite Connector SuiteApp installed, the likely cause is that these fields are not set to be visible on the relevant transaction form.

Steps to Make Fields Visible

To ensure that the necessary order processing fields are displayed, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to Customization > Forms > Transaction Forms.
  2. Locate the transaction form utilized by the NetSuite Connector for order processing (typically a sales order form) and click Edit. For certain integrations like Amazon Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA), a cash sale form may be utilized instead.
  3. On the form, click on the Tabs subtab.
  4. In the sublist, find the Custom row and check the Show box.
  5. Next, click the Screen Fields subtab and select Custom.
  6. In the sublist provided, identify all rows labeled with NetSuite Connector and check the Show box for each.
  7. Click Save to apply your changes.

By completing these steps, the fields should now be visible, allowing proper order processing using the NetSuite Connector.

Key Considerations

  • Always ensure that the correct form is selected when configuring visibility settings.
  • If using multiple transaction forms, repeat this process for each relevant form.

Who This Affects

  • Administrators responsible for form customization and order processing.
  • Developers integrating third-party solutions with NetSuite.

Key Takeaways

  • The custbody_fa_channel and custbody_fa_channel_order fields are crucial for order processing via the NetSuite Connector.
  • Making fields visible requires navigating to transaction forms and modifying field settings accordingly.
  • Correct configuration is essential for ensuring the proper functioning of the NetSuite Connector during order processing.
