Create an Integration User in NetSuite

Note:

This section should only be used if the automatic creation of the integration user in NetSuite failed in step 2 (Create Connection) of the Salesforce setup wizard. If the Salesforce setup wizard completed without errors, skip this section.

There may be instances when the NetSuite integration user creation in 2 Create Connection step of the Salesforce Connector Setup Wizard fails with an unexpected error. This section provides a potential workaround to creating an integration user in NetSuite if you are certain that enough licenses are available for user creation.

Important:

You need to perform the following procedure while logged in to NetSuite as an Administrator. After the user is created successfully, you need to update the company domain of the created user.
