Map NetSuite employee location to employee hierarchy

Check this box to map the employee Location in NetSuite to an employee hierarchy in SuiteProjects Pro.

• NetSuite location — The location is a type of classification used to track information about employees and transactions for multiple offices or warehouses in NetSuite. You can associate transactions and employees with each location, and then filter report data by location. For more information about locations, see Locations Overview (external link to NetSuite SuiteAnswers | Answer ID: 9845).

• SuiteProjects Pro hierarchy — You can use hierarchies are used to create multilevel classification trees and categorize records in your SuiteProjects Pro account. Each hierarchy is associated to one of the following record types: employees, customers, or projects. Multiple hierarchies can apply to the same record type. For more information about hierarchies, see Hierarchy.

After you check this box and you save the integration configuration, the integration creates the following records in SuiteProjects Pro:

• The Employee Location hierarchy. The Employee demographic form in SuiteProjects Pro will show dropdown fields for the Employee Location hierarchy if it contains any active nodes — Edit the hierarchy record or use form permissions to hide the Employee Location hierarchy dropdown field on Employee demographic form, if required. You can also set the Employee Location as required, and choose to display it as a column on lists.

  Note:

  You can map the NetSuite location to an existing SuiteProjects Pro hierarchy instead of using the hierarchy created by the integration. To do so, you need to delete the Employee Location hierarchy created by the integration and edit the existing hierarchy, hierarchy levels, and nodes in SuiteProjects Pro. This lets you retain the existing hierarchy you are already using in SuiteProjects Pro.

• Custom fields for hierarchy and hierarchy nodes records. These check box custom fields are hidden by default — Edit the custom field records to show them on the hierarchy form, if required.

  • NetSuite location hierarchy [netsuite_hierarchy_location] — Check box used to identify if the hierarchy maps to the NetSuite location.

  • NetSuite ID [netsuite_hierarchy_node_id] — Text custom field used to map each level or node in the SuiteProjects Pro hierarchy to the corresponding NetSuite location record.

  • NetSuite location level or hierarchy node [netsuite_hierarchy_node_location] — Check box used to identify if the SuiteProjects Pro hierarchy level or node maps to a NetSuite location depth level or record.
