Template Layout

💡 Tip: It is best to check out the forms and fields and identify the header, column, and required fields in NetSuite that you may need to build the template.

If you are using NetSuite Classic Interface you can go to:

Path: Transactions>Manufacturing>Enter Work Orders

  • TranId

  • Subsidiary (Optional)

  • Assembly Item

  • Quantity

  • Item List: Item

  • Item List: Quantity


Creating Work Orders

To create one record, those lines that have the same header values will be recognized as one record.

Step 1: Fill in the value for the Subsidiary, Assembly Item and Quantity then repeat the header values on the template for each line you wish to have on your Work Order.

Note: Tran ID are automatically generated by NetSuite.

Step 2: Click Upload to NetSuite and wait for the process to complete.

  • Yellow highlighted cells are just warning messages and will still push the records to NetSuite.

  • Green Internal ID cell indicated a successful push to NetSuite
