eXtendPS-DE allows you to automatically update your vendors' PromoStandards endpoints in NetSuite when your vendors' endpoints are updated on the PromoStandards.org website. The information below outlines the steps and process for configuration.
1. Linking of the eXtendPS-DE Supplier record with your NetSuite Vendor record.
A custom record, eXtendPS-DE Supplier, is provided along with the eXtendPS-DE bundle for storing supplier records and associated PromoStandards endpoints as received from the PromoStandards.org website.
Your NetSuite Vendor record must be linked with the corresponding eXtendPS-DE Supplier record for the automatic update to occur.
Details regarding eXtendPS-DE Supplier record creation and linking is described in Configure my vendor endpoints from PromoStandards.
2. Map/Reduce Script Configuration for updating the PromoStandards Supplier List in NetSuite
The Map/Reduce script "eXtendPS-DE Populate Suppliers" {customscript_extend_promo_popl_suplliers} is used to update the eXtendPS-DE Supplier records automatically.
Create a scheduled script deployment for this script to update eXtendPS-DE Supplier records from the PromoStandards.org website data.
Note: This Map/Reduce script will send an email to the email recipients configured on the eXtendPS-DE Setup screen. The email will contain the details of the vendors whose endpoints were updated, and any new vendors which were found on the PromoStandards website.
3. Setup configuration to consider specific vendor for endpoints update
This feature allows you to filter the vendor records which will be considered during an endpoint update.
Create a saved search based on vendor records to filter the results down to the vendors whose endpoints you would like to be updated automatically on a scheduled basis.
Note: If the vendor record is not linked with its corresponding eXtendPS-DE Supplier record, that vendor's endpoints will not be updated.
Specify this saved search id on the eXtendPS-DE Setup's "Saved Search Id To Update Vendor Endpoints" field present under the "Additional Setup" subtab.
4. Map/Reduce Configuration to Update Vendor Record Endpoints
The Map/Reduce script "eXtendPS-DE Update Vendor Endpoints"{customscript_extend_promo_upda_ven_endpo} is used to update vendor record information from the eXtendPS-DE Supplier record.
This script updates the vendor record with the updated endpoints present on the linked eXtendPS-DE Supplier record. This script will execute only upon those vendor records which fall under the search results from #3 above (the saved search in the "Saved Search Id To Update Vendor Endpoints" field present under the "Additional Setup" subtab.
Create a scheduled script deployment for this script to update vendor records with updated endpoints on a scheduled basis.
There is a script parameter "Summary Email" which, if checked, will send a notification email to the recipients on the eXtendPS-DE Setup screen with the results of the scheduled update.
