Configuring QuickAdd Keys

In SuiteCommerce InStore (SCIS), sales associates can use QuickAdd Keys to add items to an order. You can configure QuickAdd Keys to display products at any SCIS location. To display an item QuickAdd Key at a certain location, the location specified on the QuickAdd Key must match the SCIS location and the location specified on the sales associates' employee records.

QuickAdd Groups

The first step in configuring QuickAdd Keys is to configure QuickAdd Groups. QuickAdd Groups are the tabs you use on the QuickAdd bar to organize the display of items in the SCIS user interface. Note that because of responsive design, the appearance of QuickAdd Groups changes when you resize the browser. If the browser window is narrow, QuickAdd Groups may be stacked in multiple rows.

To configure QuickAdd Groups:

1. Go to Commerce > InStore > QuickAdd Groups.

2. Add or modify entries in the SCIS QuickAdd Group List.

   1. Click New SCIS QuickAdd Group to create a new grouping.

   2. Click Edit next to an existing group to make changes.

3. Click the Filters subtab, and then select the Location, Website, and Subsidiary where you want these settings to apply. You can select more than one value in each box.

   
   Note:

   By default, the filters are set to apply to all locations, websites, and subsidiaries.

4. Click Save.

QuickAdd Keys

After you have configured QuickAdd Groups, you can create a QuickAdd Key for each product you want to show in SCIS. Hotkey is a custom record type that is created when you install InStore. Configure QuickAdd Keys in NetSuite for display in SCIS.

To create a new QuickAdd Key:

1. Go to Commerce > InStore > QuickAdd Key.

2. Click New SCIS QuickAdd Key.

3. Select a QuickAdd Group from the Key Group list.

4. Select an item from the Item list.

5. (Optional) Select the Order in which this QuickAdd Key will appear in the QuickAdd Bar.

6. (Optional) Select from the Search Criteria subtab options as desired.

   • Specify a Role. This setting is useful if you want to make certain QuickAdd Keys visible to sales associates with a certain role.

   • Specify a User. This is the list of employees granted access to SCIS. The QuickAdd Key displays for the user you specify.

   • Select a Customer Group. This list is sourced from the SCIS Customer Group list. If you select a customer group here, the QuickAdd Key is only available when the sales associate adds a customer from this group to a sales transaction. If you do not make a selection, the QuickAdd Key is available for all customers.

   • Select a Customer. The QuickAdd Key is only available when the customer is selected on a transaction. If you do not make a selection, the QuickAdd Key is available for all customers.

7. Click the Filters subtab, and then select filters for Locations, Websites, and Subsidiaries.

   Filters determine the locations and other areas in which the QuickAdd Key item will appear. For example, you might not want to include the item in certain stores. For most businesses, you can select Apply to All for all three filters.

   Important:

   Filter settings are required. If a filter is not set up for Locations, Websites, and Subsidiaries, NetSuite will ignore this SCIS custom record.

8. Click Save.

To edit a QuickAdd Key:

1. Go to Customization > Lists, Records, & Fields > Record Types

2. Find the SCIS QuickAdd Key row. Click List in that row.

3. Click Edit next to the QuickAdd Key.

   1. To change the QuickAdd Group, make a selection in the Key Group field.

   2. To change criteria for availability, such as location, role or customer group, click the Search Criteria tab.

4. Click Save.

QuickAdd Keys CSV Export and Import

After you finish setting up all of the item QuickAdd Keys, you can backup your QuickAdd Key data by exporting it to a CSV file. In the unlikely event that you need to reinstall SuiteCommerce InStore, you can use CSV import capabilities in NetSuite to restore your item QuickAdd Key configuration.

To export QuickAdd Key data as a CSV file:

1. Go to the Hotkey List page.

   Go to Customization > Lists, Records, & Fields > Record Types. In the SCIS QuickAdd Key row, click List.

2. Click the Export - CSV icon at the top of the list. The CSV file is saved in the Downloads folder on your computer.

3. Open the file to verify data was saved correctly. You can store this file on your computer or in the NetSuite file cabinet for safe keeping.

Before you import item QuickAdd Key data, verify that the Key Group is correct in the CSV file. For example, if you have customized the data in NetSuite, verify that your customizations are up-to-date in the CSV file. If SuiteCommerce InStore is reinstalled, then custom Key Groups are removed.

1. Go to Setup > Import/Export > Import CSV Records.

2. On the Scan & Upload CSV File screen, select the following:

   1. For Import Type, select Custom Records.
