Customizing the Specialized User: WMS Role
You can create a custom role based on the standard Specialized User: WMS role to update or remove permissions. You can remove access to tasks on the NetSuite WMS app and retain access to inbound processing only, for example. If you use NetSuite Ship Central, you can edit permissions for packing or shipping. If you use Smart Count, you can edit permissions to access inventory counting on the Smart Count app. You can create a custom role for each mobile app or a single role for all supported apps that you use
If you do not use SAML SSO to access NetSuite or the app, you must customize the role to remove the SAML Single Sign-on permission. Otherwise, you may encounter an error since the role has Full access to SAML Single Sign-on by default.
You cannot customize other NetSuite standard or custom roles and add permissions to set it up as a Specialized User: WMS role. Other roles include those custom roles available in NetSuite WMS and Ship Central by default.
When you create a custom role, make sure that you distinguish it from other roles by including Specialized User: WMS in the name, for example. For instructions, see the following topics:
Refer to the tables in the following topics for permissions associated with tasks within each mobile app"
After you create your custom Specialized User: WMS role, you can assign it on the employee record and custom mobile processes. See Specialized User: WMS Role.
Managing Specialized User: WMS Users
Assigning only the standard or a custom Specialized User: WMS role to an employee counts toward Specialized User: WMS usage. You can assign multiple Specialized User: WMS roles. If you assign it along with other Full access roles to the same employee, it counts toward Full access usage instead. If you switch an employee to a Specialized User: WMS role, remove other roles not based on it. Otherwise, it does not count toward Specialized User: WMS usage.
