Enable the IP Address Rules Feature

You can restrict access at the company level or at the employee level. If you want to use IP address restrictions at the company level, check the Inherit IP Rules From Company box on employee records. Employees then will only have access to those computers you specify on the Set Up Company page. At the employee level, you can specify certain IP addresses on employee records if you want to limit an employee to a computer(s) within the company.

Note:

Two-factor authentication (2FA) is the preferred alternative to restricting access by IP address. For more information, see Two-Factor Authentication (2FA).

Consider using 2FA instead.

Important:

Enabling the IP Address Rules feature does not retroactively apply IP address restrictions to preexisting customized roles.

To enable the IP address rules feature:

  1. Go to Setup > Company > Enable Features.

  2. On the Company subtab, in the Access section, check the IP Address Rules box.

  3. Click Save.

Important:

IP address rules may prevent users from accessing web queries of NetSuite data. For example, this issue occurs when a user with an IP address rule creates a web query and sends it to other users who are logging in from different IP addresses.

To disable the IP address rules feature:

  1. Go to Setup > Company > Enable Features

  2. On the Company subtab, in the Access section, clear the IP Address Rules box.

  3. Click Save.
