Warehouse Management Permissions
The following tables contain the list of standard NetSuite and WMS permissions for inbound, inventory, and outbound processing:
Use these tables as a guide when you want to manually add WMS permissions to your custom roles. The permissions allow roles to perform WMS tasks on both the NetSuite user interface and on a mobile device.
Add permissions based on your business requirements. For example, if you do not process work orders in your warehouse, you do not need to assign the Work Order permission. If you want your custom role to perform inbound and outbound processing tasks, you can combine the permissions from their corresponding tables.
To assign permissions, you can edit your custom role by going to Setup > Users/Roles > User Management > Manage Roles. On the Role page, you can set each permission and access level on the Permissions subtab. All minimum access levels for WMS permissions are set to Full, unless otherwise indicated in the table. For detailed instructions, see Setting Permissions.
