What’s the Patch About
NetSuite has released a critical patch for SuiteCommerce and SuiteCommerce Advanced (SCA), specifically targeting users of Reference Product Lists and Reference Product Reviews. Failure to implement this patch may lead to site inaccessibility or unresponsive behavior after the update deadline.
Why It’s Urgent
With the 2025.1 release, NetSuite is enforcing stricter permission protocols for custom records. Sites running versions earlier than v2024.2 must apply the patch to retain access to features such as Product Reviews and Wishlists.
What the Patch Does
- Introduces two new roles to support secure data access:
SC Product Lists— for access to Product List recordsSC Product Review— for access to Product Review records- Aligns existing permissions with the updated security framework
