FAQ
π΅ Anything missing from the CloudExtend Gmail for NetSuite NextGen?
There are a few things missing from the NextGen app, at least for now. When we built the NextGen app we prioritized features used the most and we deprioritized features used the least. The bottom line is weβre launching with a couple of missing (but little used) features.
The ability to open the Gmail compose window from the Gmail subtab in NetSuite will not be available.
Record types available for attaching emails are currently limited to those on this list.
Custom Records are only supported in manual association in this release. Setting a thread on Autopilot which associates with Custom Records will come in a future release.
π΅ What is the difference between the NextGen app and the legacy app?
All emails will be stored on the native messages tab in NetSuite. Previously a copy of the email was also added to the Gmail sub-tab.
Email attachments will be included as part of the email on the native messages tab giving the user full visibility as to where the attachments came from (attachments were previously available on the Files tab without any visibility of their origin).
π΅ Can I run the NextGen app and the legacy app in parallel?
It is technically possible to use both apps at the same time. For most users, we encourage you to turn off the legacy app (navigate to your extensions and click the slider next to the App to disable it).
