Increasing Traveler Parameter Settings

Travelers generated in Advanced Manufacturing follow the script usage limits that apply to all platform solutions. To ensure that your traveler requests do not fail, NetSuite monitors usage and may restart as it nears generation limits. The system checks each work order using a script deployment parameter that defines expected script usage per traveler.

Poorly defined script deployment parameters can cause Advanced Manufacturing to fail when generating large, complex travelers. If this number is set too low, large travelers can cause a time out before system self-monitoring can restart (to avoid the timeout). The solution is to increase the parameter setting.

To increase traveler parameter settings:

  1. Go to Customization > Scripting > Script Deployments.

  2. In the Script Deployments list, click edit beside the traveler you want to update.

  3. Click the Parameters subtab.

  4. Enter the default traveler value in the Yield At (Units) field.

    • Enter a value that enables NetSuite to move to the next traveler.

      If no value is entered, Advanced Manufacturing uses a value of 100.

    • Setting a high value for large complex travelers reduces the chance of a timeout. It can also result in longer traveler generation times when many work orders are submitted.

    • Setting a lower value minimizes restarts and shortens traveler generation time when many work orders are submitted. It can also result in timeout.

  5. Click Save.
