User Interface

This release note was updated February 24, 2025.

NetSuite 2025.1 includes the following enhancement to the NetSuite User Interface:

Updates to Text Enhance

Text Enhance includes the following enhancements and changes:

  • Partial Text Enhance: You can apply supported Text Enhance actions to content you select in a text area field, a long text field, or a rich text field. For example, if you are working on an email message and only want to clean up part of the email message, you can select the part you want to clean up and a menu displays the available actions. For more information, see Text Enhance.

  • Make Shorter and Make Longer actions are supported more widely across NetSuite. By default, these actions are now available from the Enhance Text menu for all fields that support Text Enhance.

  • Text Enhance now supports custom actions defined through Prompt Studio. In Prompt Studio, you can control which Text Enhance actions are available, which prompt is attached to each one, which context from a page is used, view an audit log, and more. You can override system-defined prompts for Text Enhance actions and add new Text Enhance actions. You can define Text Enhance actions that will be available when a user clicks the Enhance Text button or when a user selects text in a text area field, a long text field, or a rich text field. For more information, see Prompt Studio.

  • Text Enhance was expanded to support accounts in the following locations:

    • Australia

    • Japan

    • New Zealand

    • United Arab Emirates (hosted in Amsterdam or Frankfurt)

    • United Kingdom
