Manufacturing Mobile Enhancements
NetSuite 2025.1 includes the following Manufacturing Mobile enhancements:
Refined Bin Selection When Issuing Components for Work Orders
With the NetSuite 2025.1 Manufacturing Mobile SuiteApp, you can now select the bins from which you want to issue components when you execute WIP and non-WIP work orders. This feature uses the existing Issue from Preferred Bin preference on the Bin Numbers section of the Purchasing/Inventory subtab of the assembly item record.
When the Issue from Preferred Bin box is checked, and the component item record is configured with a preferred bin per location, components will be issued from the configured preferred bin. When your location is selected in the Location to show all bins field in the Manufacturing Mobile subtab, you can select any bin at your location when issuing components for work orders.
Operation Log
A new Operation Log option appears in the NetSuite 25.1 Manufacturing Mobile SuiteApp interface menu. The operation log displays details for operations that are in progress (either set up or running) at a specified work center. Depending on your role, you can switch between work centers, select associated in-progress operations, and end them. If you are a Production Operator, you can see in-progress operations that you have previously worked on. If you are a Production Manager or Administrator, you can see all in-progress operations.
GS1 Item Label Printing
With the NetSuite 2025.1 Manufacturing Mobile SuiteApp, you can now print GS1 bar codes on the item labels for produced assembly items. To use this feature, you must have item level label printing enabled. A new Enable GS1 Bar Code Printing box appears on the item print preferences record when you go to Manufacturing Mobile > Administration/Setup > Item Level Print Preferences and select the assembly item for which you want to print labels by scanning a GS1 bar code.
Label Printing Enhancements
The NetSuite 2025.1 Manufacturing Mobile SuiteApp includes the following enhancements to label printing:
-
Defining Item Level Print Preferences by Item Process Group or Item Process Family: The item print preferences record now includes new Item Process Group and Item Process Family to enable you to configure print preferences for multiple items at one time. When you set either of these two new fields, the print preferences will apply to all of the items configured as part of the Item Process Group or Item Process Family.
-
Advanced PDF Template Support: You can now select Advanced PDF Templates in the template fields on the item level print preferences record. For more information on using Advanced PDF Templates, see Creating Custom Print Templates and Files.
Pause Reason on Restart Pages
You can now see a new Pause Reason field on the Restart Run and Restart Setup pages in the NetSuite 25.1 Manufacturing Mobile interface. Before you choose to restart a run or setup, you can review the reason the operation was paused.
