Some of the features available in this release include:

• Retrieve, add, update and delete data
• Reusable search and result templates
• Support for hierarchical data and select lists

A complete list of features and other relevant information is available here.

Licensing for the SmartClient is on a per user subscription basis. The current beta is a fully functional version that's valid for 30 days. The public release of the product will be distributed as a 14-day trial that's restricted from updating data back to NetSuite. These restrictions will be removed once a valid license has been purchased. Each issued license will require activation that binds it to the host machine. The activation process requires an active internet connection and can be launched from within the product itself.

We are making all the bits and pieces required to run the SmartClient in a single downloadable package. The binaries have been subjected to SmartAssembly obfuscation and optimization.

As mentioned previously, this is a private beta release and the exciting world of the SmartClient is only open to a limited audience. If you’re interested in participating, please contact us online. The public beta is coming soon… stay tuned!

Webservices are a whole lot of fun. They let you focus on implementing a rich feature set in your application, and then extend it using a separate set of rich functionality that was developed and perfected elsewhere. But, life isn’t easy when you have to work with a secure system over the wire; you have to worry about authentication, session management, request/response size limitations, etc.

This is where Celigo’s ServiceManager comes in. The ServiceManager or SM (as we often refer to it), is an abstraction over the ground work that needs to be implemented when dealing with the SuiteTalk API.

Here’s a look at some of the features offered:

Where we used to do something like this in version 11.x: 

if ((typeof custscript_case_debug != "undefined") && (custscript_case_debug == 'T')) {
   debug = true;
   nlapiLogExecution ('DEBUG', 'Debug mode is turned on');
}

If you're running your web store on NetSuite, you may have heard about the challenges in implementing Google Analytics. In this posting, we will attempt to walk you through the details of setting up Google Analytics.

Once completed, you should be able to track web site activity across product catalog pages, shopping cart and checkout pages, and order submission and confirmation pages. Additionally, you can see a listing of all orders placed through your site including the ability to see the order number, order total, shipping total, and tax total.

We used the steps defined in this article as a basis to get started on this project.

Tcpmon is a great way to view http traffic if you know the ports your traffic is being routed through.  Launching the application couldn't be easier.  Simply specify a 'Listen Port #', 'Target Port #', 'Target Hostname', and click on Add.  Point the url of your web services client to the localhost port you have just setup and watch the SOAP fly on by.

Stunnel provides the ability to encrypt and decrypt data being sent to a server.  Working with NetSuite, it is a required component, unless you have the magical ability to decifer data sent across the https connection NetSuite requries.  Launching the application entails configuring the config file titled stunnel.conf and double clicking an executable startup script.

What's in it for you? In short, we invite you to benefit from our experiences. Our team has configured and implemented NetSuite for more than a hundred customers.

From a technical perspective, Celigo is a leader in automation and integration. We were part of the original Web services team at NetSuite that launched SuiteTalk, so we think we know a thing or two about this stuff...

For the curious--we use MoveableType (also a NetSuite customer) as our blogging platform.
