Troubleshooting: Outlook emails fail to attach to NetSuite

ExtendSync Outlook | Why emails fail to attach and how to fix it

Updated over 2 weeks ago

If your Outlook email is failing to attach to NetSuite, it is usually caused by one of the following:

  • Your NetSuite role is missing required permissions

  • Your role does not have Web Services enabled

  • The email is still being processed by NetSuite (temporary delay)


Common Causes

Below are the most common causes and how to resolve them.|

1. Missing Record Permissions

If you cannot attach an email to a specific NetSuite record type (Customer, Contact, Transaction, etc.)

  • Ask your NetSuite Admin to add the required permissions for the record type you’re attaching to.

  • Roles must have at least View/Create access depending on the context.

2. Web Services Permissions Not Enabled

  • ExtendSync requires Web Services permission to authenticate and attach emails. If not enabled, attachments will fail.

  • Share this article with your NetSuite Admin.

3. NetSuite Is Still Processing the Email

  • Most emails attach within under a minute

  • Busy NetSuite accounts may delay processing

  • You can check the real-time status of your email sync in NetSuite using the Web Services Process Status Log.
