When you save an email to NetSuite using ExtendSync Google, the association may appear in Gmail before the email becomes visible in the NetSuite Communications tab.
In most cases, this is expected behavior, and the email will appear after processing completes.
đ¨ Symptoms
After saving an email:
Gmail shows the ExtendSync label indicating that the email was saved.
The associated NetSuite record appears in the Associated section in ExtendSync.
When you open the record in NetSuite, the email does not immediately appear in the Communications tab.
You may not see an error message because the email association was successfully initiated.
Why This Happens
ExtendSync Google processes Gmail notifications asynchronously. Processing is typically near real-time, but it is not always immediate.
During periods of increased activity, notification processing may be throttled to manage the volume of notifications received from Google. This can cause some emails to take longer to post to NetSuite.
A short delay between seeing the association in Gmail and seeing the email in NetSuite is expected behavior and does not mean the email failed to sync.
How to Resolve the Issue
End Users
No action is normally required.
Allow time for ExtendSync to finish processing the email.
Refresh the NetSuite record after a few minutes.
Check the Communications tab again.
Avoid repeatedly saving the same email while waiting, as the original save may still be processing.
Verification / What to Expect
Once processing completes:
The email remains associated with the correct NetSuite record in ExtendSync.
The saved email appears under the record's Communications tab in NetSuite.
If the email does not appear after an extended period, contact CloudExtend Support for assistance.
Notes / Best Practices
Seeing the NetSuite record in the Associated section confirms that ExtendSync has processed the association request.
A temporary delay in NetSuite does not require you to save the email again.
Processing time can vary depending on Gmail notification volume.
