Setting Up SCIS for Multiple Countries

To configure SuiteCommerce InStore (SCIS) for any country or region, you must complete some general setup in NetSuite, such as entering supported currencies, and entering prices for each currency on item records. You must also configure custom SCIS records appropriately.

Note:

If you use Multiple Currencies in your account, an Administrator must ensure that the Currency permission exists on the SCIS Clerk role. For more information, read SCIS Clerk.

To assign multiple currencies to item records:

1. Setup currencies in NetSuite. Follow general NetSuite setup instructions. For more information see, Multiple Currencies.

2. Enter currency prices on item records.

   Note:

   If you use multiple currencies, you must enter prices in your base currency in addition to other currencies you support.

   1. Go to Lists > Accounting > Items.

   2. Click Edit next to the item record you want to update.

   3. Click the Sales/Pricing subtab.

   4. Enter prices for additional currencies.

   5. Click Save.

Follow these steps to create a new SCIS custom record as needed for each region.

Configuring SCIS Custom Records for Multiple Regions

It is important to ensure that the proper locations and subsidiaries are selected for each SCIS custom record. In some cases, you must create a new record to define settings for a particular region. Ensure that the proper locations and subsidiaries are selected for each of the following SCIS custom records:

• SCIS Settings – Required for the following items:

  • Discounts

  • Shipping

  • Saved searches

  • Logo and background images

  • Settings for printing

  • Custom attributes

  • Customer settings

  • Settings for orders

  • QuickAdd bar

  • Sales reports

  Note:

  You may need to create a new SCIS Settings record for certain settings that apply to a particular website, location, and subsidiary.

• SCIS Quick Cash Denominations – Required to support various currency denominations. There should be an SCIS Quick Cash Denomination record to reflect denominations for each currency in which you transact.

• SCIS Permission – Required for SCIS Clerk to access items. Ensure that you select the appropriate locations and subsidiaries on the Filters subtab.

• SCIS Payment Method – Required for payment methods that are only valid for a particular locale. There should be an SCIS Payment Method record to reflect payment methods that apply to each currency in which you transact.

Setting Filters on Custom Records

Click the Filters subtab on each custom record to select your settings.

Select a value for each filter that corresponds with the place where you want to support in SCIS. For example, if the SCIS Retail website, under the UK subsidiary in London supports the British Pound, then you would select London for SCIS Location, Retail for Website, and Parent Company : UK for Subsidiary. If you do not want to setup specific localizations, then check the Apply to All boxes.

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