Creating Environments

Contact SuitePortal support to provision additional environments.

Environment Configuration

Each environment needs:

  • Separate NetSuite connection
  • Independent user base
  • Own configuration settings

Data Considerations

Sandbox Data

  • Use realistic test data
  • Don't use production customer data
  • Refresh periodically

Production Data

  • Monitor data quality
  • Review sync errors
  • Maintain backups

Best Practices

  • Test changes in sandbox first
  • Document environment differences
  • Maintain consistent configuration
  • Regular sandbox refreshes
