Consolidated Exchange Rates

If your subsidiaries have different base currencies, you can maintain a table of consolidated exchange rates to ensure that for consolidation purposes, currency amounts properly roll up from child to parent subsidiaries.

Each consolidated exchange rate translates between the base currency of a subsidiary and the base currency of its parent or grandparent subsidiary, for a specified accounting period.

3 rates are maintained for each period-parent-subsidiary: Current, Average, Sistorical

Consolidated Exchange Rates – Current rate

The effective exchange rate at the end of a selected period

By completing the tasks in the period close checklist and subsequently closing the period, net income will be reflected in the amount of Retained Earnings on the balance sheet. No manual entries are required under automatic close.

This method is strongly recommended by NetSuite.

Yearend closing – Manual Close

This method involves the creation of manual journal entries to close income and expense accounts to retained earnings. This method is not recommended by NetSuite.

Tax – What happens if my tax period is not set up?

If you are creating an invoice and there is no open tax period in which the transaction can be reported, NetSuite prevents you from saving the transaction. This is true for all posting transactions that are taxable.

Tax control accounts are accounts in your general ledger or chart of accounts. These are the accounts to which the amounts computed for indirect taxes such as sales tax and VAT are posted.

Tax – Shadow Tax Agencies

In a OneWorld account, multiple subsidiaries can pay taxes to the same tax agency. When you add a subsidiary, and its nexus is the same as that of an existing subsidiary, NetSuite creates a copy of the preferred tax vendor for that nexus to associate it with the new subsidiary. This copy (known as a child or shadow vendor) is necessary because tax agency vendors cannot be shared between subsidiaries.

Consolidated Customer Payments

Gives you the flexibility to accept payment for subcustomer invoices from either the top-level customer or from the individual sub customer.

Consolidated Customer Payments – Features

When you select a top-level customer the Invoices subtab shows both the invoices entered for the top-level customer as well as the open invoices for each of its sub customers.

When a top-level customer is selected on the Payment page, the Deposits and Credits subtabs list all the deposits and credits entered for the top-level customer and its subcustomers. These credits and deposits can be applied to any of the open invoices entered for the top-level customer or its sub customers.

If you allow customers to make payments through the Customer Centre, top-level customers can make payments on their invoices or the invoices of their subcustomers. They can also apply any credits or deposits to these invoices

Consolidated Balance Fields – Consolidated Balance

The total of all open invoices for the entire customer-subcustomer hierarchy.

Consolidated Balance Fields : Overdue

Shows the total overdue balance for all customers and subcustomers in the hierarchy.

With this feature enabled, credit limits set on individual subcustomer records are not enforced.

Item – Drop Ship Item

When you drop ship an item, the item is sent directly from your vendor to your customer and the item is not processed in your inventory.

They do not impact your inventory asset accounts or affect your stock count. You can drop ship inventory items and non-inventory for resale items.

Item – Special Order

You can use special orders to purchase and track items that might not follow regular inventory processing, such as “just-in-time” orders or orders for customized items.

They do impact your inventory asset accounts or affect your stock count. You can special order any inventory items and non-inventory for resale items

Shipping – Multiple Shipping Routes

Enables you ship to several addresses using different shipping methods on the same transaction. The Multiple Shipping Routes feature can be enabled in NetSuite United States edition accounts and NetSuite International edition accounts.

Shipping – Shipping Route

A unique combination of:
* shipping address
* shipping carrier
* shipping method
* origin address

Features – Sales Order : Requiring Re-approval

Require re-approval when someone edits a sales order that was previously approved. However, partially fulfilled sales orders are not affected by this preference. When a sales order is partially fulfilled, the status cannot be changed back to pending approval.

Shipping – Shipping Items

Shipping item records outline how an item is shipped. This includes shipping rate information, handling rates, rules for shipping and handling, and when shipping is free. NetSuite also refers to a Shipping Item as Shipping Method and Ship Via.

Shipping – Shipping Method

* FedEx
* UPS
* USPS
* By Weight
* By Item
* Percentage of Total
* Shipping Table

Pick, Pack and Ship

The Pick, Pack, and Ship feature allows greater flexibility to process and track the status of orders through the fulfillment and shipment processes. You use separate transactions to pick the items from inventory, pack the items to prepare them to be shipped, and then ship the items to their destination.

Shipping – Tracking Numbers

Tracking numbers help you to follow your customer shipments. You can retrieve tracking numbers from UPS, FedEx, DHL, U.S. Postal Service® (USPS), and Airborne when you ship your packages.

Inventory – Multi-Location Inventory

Allows you to associate each item and transaction with a location. Then, you can track the purchase, sale, stock level and value of items in your locations, as well as transferring inventory between locations

Inventory – Inventory Distribution

After you have enabled the Multi-Location Inventory feature, you must perform a distribution before you can enter inventory transactions.

Note the following before you distribute Inventory.
* NetSuite recommends that you distribute inventory during non-peak business hours.
* Your data is most accurate if you distribute all unassigned inventory at one time and make no changes to transactions dated before the distribution. If you change earlier transactions and then return to Distribute Inventory, the Undistributed column may show an incorrect or negative quantity. To correct for this error, go to Transactions > Inventory > Adjust Inventory.
* Inventory is distributed only if the stock level is 0 or greater.

Billing Schedules

A billing schedule defines the schedule to bill a sale over a range of time or a contract term. Billing schedules manage the billing process by tracking when to invoice customers and how much to bill.

Revenue Recognition

Enable you to recognize revenue independently from billing customers and receiving payments to defer revenue for recognition in multiple future time periods.

Revenue Recognition – Revenue Recognition Template Types

* Standard – Select this type for most templates. Standard templates require a recognition Method and Term Source.
* Variable – Select this type to use this template for percent-complete revenue recognition for service items that are part of projects.

Revenue Recognition – Custom Revenue Recognition Method

The Custom method enables you to define revenue recognition terms that include uneven periods, amounts, and multiple income accounts.

For example, you can define a custom schedule as:
* 1st period – 40% of net income posts to income account 4000, 10% to account 4001
* 2nd period through 6th period – 10% of net income to posts to account 4002.

Revenue Recognition – Revenue Recognition Term Source

Term Source determines which dates to use to recognize revenue. In Other words which transaction to use to get the dates for the Rev Rec Term

Revenue Recognition – Revenue Recognition Period

The Recognition Period defines the range of time for revenue recognition by setting the number of periods over which the schedule is recognized.

Revenue Recognition – Revenue Recognition Period Offset

You can define an Offset value for a revenue recognition template to delay the start of a schedule. Two types of Offset are available:
* Period Offset moves the entire recognition period ahead by x number of periods, keeping the same number of periods.
* Start Offset delays the beginning of recognition, changing the number of periods, and keeping the same end date.

Revenue Recognition – Revenue Recognition Initial Amount

The initial amount is a percentage or fixed currency amount to be recognized in the first recognition period.

Credit Card Processing Flow

1. Customer places an order.
2. NetSuite securely sends an authorization request together with the order information to a payment gateway.
3. The payment gateway formats the transaction and securely routes the authorization request to the payment processor or clearing house.
4. The transaction is routed to the issuing bank (shopper’s bank) to request placing a hold on the shopper’s funds.
5. The transaction is authorized or declined by the issuing bank.
6. The payment gateway forwards the processing result to NetSuite.
7. If the issuing bank authorizes the transaction, an order is submitted in NetSuite with a Pending Fulfillment or Pending Approval status.

Customer Credit Memos

A transaction that decreases the amount a customer owes you.

GL Impact – Customer Credit Memos

Debit – Sales.
Credit – Accounts Receivable.

Commission – Employee Commission Schedules

Commission schedules define rules that NetSuite uses to calculate commission earned by your sales reps.

Items – Assembly/Bill of Materials

An assembly item is an inventory item made of several components but identified as a single item. Assemblies are manufactured by combining raw materials you stock. You create an assembly item record to define the members of an assembly. Then, your account tracks stock separately for the assembly item and for each member component

Items – Lot Numbered Assembly Item

This is a record to track a group of inventory items by assigning a lot number to a group of assembly items.

Items – Serialized Assembly

This is a record to track physical inventory items by assigning a serial number to each assembly individually.

Items – Inventory Item

This is a record for something you stock and sell. Track the amount and value you have on hand, as well as the marginal profit you make.

Items – Serialized Inventory Item

This is a record to track physical inventory items by assigning a serial number to each item individually.

Items – Lot Numbered Inventory Item

This is a record to track a group of inventory items by assigning a lot number to identify the group. For example, you can identify an item lot by its expiration date.

Items – Item Group

An item group is a unit composed of items from your inventory. An item group is a short cut for entering a group of items on a sales or purchase order that need to be sold or purchased together. The item group itself is not fulfilled, received, or stocked, but rather the components of the group are.

Item group components can be inventory items, assemblies, kits, and service items.

The price of a group item is dependent on its members’ prices.

Only groups allow you to change members on the fly on the transaction record

Items – Kit/Package

A kit/package is a unit composed of items from your inventory. A kit is sold as one unit but has several member components.

Kit components can be inventory items, assemblies, kits, and service items.

The price of a kit is not dependent on its components’ prices and can be assigned several price levels.

Items – Subtotal Items

A subtotal item can be inserted on any line of a transaction and will subtotal the items above it, up to the next subtotal line.

Items – Payment Items

You can create payment items for types of payments that are made to invoices and should show separately. For example, you can create a payment item to specify a down payment amount.

Items – Mark-up Items

You can use mark-up items to apply an additional charge to an order. Using mark-up items enables you to track mark-up amounts without affecting inventory valuation.

Items – Expense Items

If you use Charge-Based Billing, you can create items used to charge tracked project expenses back to customers.

Items – Discount Items

You can create discount items to apply to sales that reduce the line-item amount that precedes the discount item either by a percentage or flat rate. A discount item can also be used to reduce the total amount of a transaction

Items – Other Charge Items

Other charge items can be used to designate items or services you purchase, sell, or resell that do not fall into another item type category.

Items – Description Items

Description line items let add descriptions on items you are not selling. For example, you can enter special shipping instructions or a disclaimer.

Items – Gift Certificates

You can create gift certificate items that allow customers to purchase store credit they can send to someone as a gift. The recipient uses the gift certificate code when placing an order through your Web store or entering a transaction with a sales representative.

Items – Non-Inventory Items

Items that you always drop ship or other items that you sell or purchase, but do not stock can be recorded and tracked as non-inventory items.

Items – Download Items

You create download item records for files that you want customers to be able to purchase and download in your Web store.

Items – Service Item

A service item is an item you create to track time and record billable hours.

Stock impact of building an Assembly item

the assembly item stock levels increase
the member items’ individual stock levels decrease

Multi-Location Inventory : Be aware

Before you enable the Multi-Location Inventory feature, you must fully ship or otherwise close all open orders.

Demand Planning – Reorder Point (ROP)

When the quantity on hand of an item drops to this amount, the item is reordered.

After you select the Reorder Point replenishment method, you enter inventory management settings on item records. NetSuite then anticipates future demand for the item and adjusts suggested item ordering. Based on previous purchases and sales of items, your account calculates appropriate reorder points and preferred stock levels for items.

Demand Planning – Best Practice Using Auto-Calculation

After you enable the Advanced Inventory Management feature, there is a best practice when you set up inventory records. Do not immediately enter settings to auto-calculate stock levels and demand for ordering items. This is a best practice because if there is not enough sales history when you begin using auto-calculation, the data may be inaccurate.

Inventory – Adjustment Inventory Worksheet Limitations

* Each import can create one new inventory worksheet.
* Each inventory worksheet import can import data for one combination of class, department, location, and, if applicable, subsidiary values.
* The inventory worksheet import currently does not support the import of bin information.
* Like the inventory worksheet form in the user interface, this import is best suited if you are using average costing.

Pricing – Absolute Pricing for Customers

Set price for each item that is specific to the customer. An absolute price always overrides any other pricing that has been set up, such as a price level. The absolute price is always used on sales transactions for the customer

Purchase Requests

A purchase request is a transaction that records a purchase that needs to be made.

FAM – Asset Usage Depreciation

Usage-based depreciation methods are not based on time, but on a level of activity. This could be miles driven for a vehicle, or a cycle count for a machine.

FAM – Fixed Declining Depreciation

Depreciation methods that provide for a higher depreciation charge in the first year of an asset’s life and gradually decreasing charges in subsequent years are called accelerated depreciation methods.

FAM – Straight Line Depreciation

The company estimates the salvage value of the asset at the end of its useful life and will expense a portion of the original cost in equal increments over that period. The residual value, also known as scrap value, is an estimate of the value of the asset at the time it will be sold or disposed of.

FAM – Sum of Years’ Digits Depreciation

Annual depreciation is determined by multiplying the depreciable cost by a schedule of fractions.

FAM – Straight Line Remaining

This method is similar to the standard Straight Line method but will depreciate the asset from the value at the start of the method rather than the original cost. This method would be typically used as a linked method following another method.

FAM – Sum of Years/Straight Line

This method depreciates the asset using the Sum of Years’ Digits method for the first year before switching to use Straight Line depreciation for the rest of the depreciation lifetime

FAM – 150DB and 200DB

These two methods consist of two calculations where the highest value is selected. The net effect is that for the first part of the asset life it will depreciate faster. Partway through the asset life, approximately a third in the case of 150DB, the second method will take over, and the depreciation will go from a curve to finish as a straight line method.

FAM – 4-4-5 Calendar Depreciation

The 4-4-5 Calendar Depreciation method computes depreciation daily.

FAM – Asset Types

Defaults some of the asset variables (on creation of new assets) and groups assets in reports and during processing.

FAM – Allow Negative Asset Cost

Check this box to enable administrators (and other roles with permission to edit asset values) to enter negative values—for original cost, current cost, and residual value—in asset records.

* To select the Allow Negative Asset Cost preference, you must first check the Allow Asset Value Editing box.
* Note that when negative values are entered in asset records, you cannot clear the Allow Asset Value Editing or Allow Negative Asset Cost box to disable either preference.

FAM – User Roles

Select additional roles from this field to enable other users to edit asset values.

FAM – Restrict Ability to Reject Proposals

Check this box if you want the Reject Proposals button to only be displayed on the Asset Proposal page for those with the Administrator role.

FAM – Propose Approved Transactions Only

Check this box if you want to only propose assets from transactions that have been approved.

Clear this box to enable automatic proposal of assets from all new transactions posted against the fixed asset general ledger accounts regardless of transaction status (for example, approved or pending approval).

FAM – Summarize Journals By

Choose any of the following options:
* Parent—Roll up values of sub-assets to parent and create one journal entry to include parent and child values per period.
* Sub-Category—Roll up values to sub-category and create one journal entry per sub-category per period.
* Asset Type—Roll up values by asset type.

FAM – Allow Future-dated Depreciation

Check this box to permit depreciation of assets up to a depreciation period date beyond that of the current period. Clear this box to depreciate assets to the current period only.

FAM – Use Accounting Period Dates for Depreciation

Check this box to use accounting period dates for the depreciation journal entry.

This is applicable if you are not using calendar months for the Period Format. When not enabled, the depreciation will use calendar months.

FAM – Use Custom Journals

Check this box to use a custom journal entry form for asset depreciation, revaluation, transfer, and disposal

FAM – Post on Location Change
FAM – Post on Class Change
FAM – Post on Department Change

To transfer the entire asset (dispose under old field value and post current values under the new field value) on location change, class change, or department change, check any of these boxes. Clear these boxes if you want the preferences to only affect future transaction.

Changing the subsidiary will always transfer the asset and generate postings.

FAM – Write-down using Depreciation Account

Check this box to post write-down amounts to the depreciation account. Clear the box to post write-down amounts to the asset account.

FAM – Asset Disposal Invoice Form (internal id)

Enter the Internal ID of the preferred Invoice form to be used to create the Sales Invoice record when disposing an asset by Sale. If this field is left blank, the default preferred form will be used as the Invoice form.

FAM – Allow Lease Modifications

Check this box to allow changes to be made to leased records with an ‘Asset Created’ status.

FAM – Asset records

The asset record defines the asset and its depreciation rules, and displays the asset’s net book value, depreciation life to date, last depreciation date, original cost, and residual value. After asset types are entered, details of individual assets can be entered on individual asset records.
