Documentation on SCM Mobile

The SCM Mobile and Manufacturing Mobile bundles contain the mobile device application that production operators and managers will use to process shop floor transactions. These bundles take three to five minutes to install. You can continue to work in your NetSuite account while the bundle is installed. If you have an Assembly and Work Order license, the SCM Mobile and Manufacturing Mobile bundles will be shared and set up automatically.

The Status column on the Installed Bundles page displays the install progress. When the installation is complete, a green checkmark appears in the Status column. You must install the SCM Mobile bundle before you can set up the Manufacturing Mobile bundle.

The account and requested bundle must be the same version. For example, if the requested Manufacturing Mobile bundle is 21.1, then the account should be in NetSuite 21.1.

SCM Mobile Enhancements

  1. ■ Ability to add columns to a table – You can add columns to a Data Table element used in a standard or custom mobile process. SCM Mobile maps the rows of your additional columns with those from the columns of the existing table. Using a RESTlet, you can save the data from additional columns to a NetSuite record. For mobile configuration, you can set up a RESTlet type of action for the button click event of the associated mobile page. For mobile customization, you can set it up for the column click, row click, and button click events.
  2. ■ Enhanced navigation for popup windows – Previously, you can navigate to the parent page only of a popup window. Now, you can specify the target page for the mobile action that you set up to perform the navigation. You can add conditions to control the navigation.
  3. ■ Update to printer type options – When you specify a printer type, you can now choose the All Types option for printers that support labels and reports. See the help topic Setting Up Your Printers.
  4. ■ Automatically Submit Default Values – This checkbox appears on the configuration and customization pages for Text Box element types. When you assign a default value to the element, you can check this box. NetSuite automatically submits the default value, along with the mobile page, after the element is populated. For custom mobile processes, the data or page submission depends on the settings for the Action Button element that you choose as the primary action. See the help topic Configuring Mobile Page Elements.
