Personal Preferences for Restricting Views

Click the Restrict View subtab of the Set Preferences page to limit your access to information for the specific class, location, department, or subsidiary you select. The restrictions apply only for the duration of your current session. The next time you login, your original settings are restored.

Important:

If you use NetSuite OneWorld, some reports do not support consolidation and can return results for only one subsidiary at a time. Before you can run one of these reports, you must set your user preferences to restrict your view to a single subsidiary.

Some standard reports return errors when you attempt to run them before setting this preference.
