Security Notifications for ERP Sandbox Integration
NetSuite Point of Sale (NSPOS) includes two notifications that alert you to possible server issues when creating a sandbox for for user acceptance testing (UAT). The notifications prompt you to take certain actions in the event a misconfiguration occurs with the NSPOS integration to your NetSuite ERP production or sandbox environment.
What is covered in the notifications
In NetSuite ERP, the NSPOS production server URL is stored as the NSPOS SERVER NAME. NetSuite ERP has implemented a change that duplicates the production URL and credentials in sandbox environments.
A sandbox refresh copies the NSPOS SERVER NAME value from the production environment to the sandbox. After the refresh, the sandbox contains the URL for the production server. Because the URL is duplicated, the sandbox and production integration between the server will not function correctly.
In the event of an issue, attempting to make the sandbox and NSPOS server integration function correctly without extensive knowledge of this area could have a negative impact on your business. The risks include the mixing of testing and production data.
The notifications warn you if a testing setup will create this type of integration error.
