Installing the Inbound ASN Automation SuiteApp
Inbound ASN Automation SuiteApp is a managed SuiteApp that automatically updates whenever enhancements or new features are added.
You can install the Inbound ASN Automation SuiteApp from the SuiteApp Marketplace. For more information, see Installing from the SuiteApp Marketplace.
Permissions for Inbound ASN Automation
If you upgrade the Inbound ASN Automation SuiteApp from version 1.0.0 to version 1.1.0, the existing Inbound ASN Automation permissions get deleted. Reassign the Inbound ASN Automation permissions to your custom and standard roles to be able to use the SuiteApp.
The Inbound ASN Warehouse Manager role has been created with the required permissions for the SuiteApp.
You can either use the Inbound ASN Warehouse Manager role or assign the required permissions to any existing roles in your organization. The following table describes the minimum access level for permissions required to use the SuiteApp. If a higher access level for any of these permissions is set for a role, there is no need to change the level.
