General Information

This feature is part of NetSuiteInventoryMultiManagement and requires MSI to be enabled and used in Magento Instance. More information about MSI https://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.4/inventory/

This process can be triggered by using CRON (see: 2024.1 Server Configuration). This solution is used because locations in NetSuite are not updated often and we don't need to check for updates each time we execute a regular import for other entities. During this step we fetch all locations that existed in NetSuite and validate that they are importable to Magento. If they are, the Connector adds them to the queue. For details see: \RocketWeb\NetSuiteInventoryMultiManagement\Plugin\NetSuiteCron::importToQueue() and \RocketWeb\NetSuiteInventoryMultiManagement\Model\Process\Import\Location::getNetsuiteRequest()

Source Creation/Updating

On next import processing, all previously added locations are extracted from the queue and processed. The processing starts from checking location custom field custrecord_rw_cf_magento_code, and it should be not empty, as Magento Source is the Primary Key. Using this field and internal ID of the location, the Connector tries to find the previously mapped Sources in Magento. (see details: \RocketWeb\NetSuiteInventoryMultiManagement\Model\MagentoSourceRepository::getSourceByNetSuiteData()). If the Source is found, then it is used for further updating. If nothing is found, the Connector creates an empty Source object and proceeds to Fields Mapping (\RocketWeb\NetSuiteInventoryMultiManagement\Model\Process\Import\Location::process()).

Location Fields Mapping

During this step, the Connector adds information from the Location object to the Source object. Source Code field (custrecord_rw_cf_magento_code) is set only if a new object is created. Other fields that are set:

Name
Latitude
Longitude
Contact Name
Phone
City
Country
Region
Postcode
Street
Enabled
Description
netsuite_internal_id

If the NetSuite Location has location type _store, the Magento Source is created as PickupLocation. Therefore, PickupLocation Frontend Name and Frontend Description are set. Because not all fields in NetSuite exists out of the box, the Connector uses some custom fields that should be created by the RocketWeb Bundle. They are:

custrecord_rw_cf_enable_in_magento - used for Enabled Magento field
custrecord_rw_cf_magento_code - used for Source Code (is required)
custrecord_rw_cf_magento_pickup_desc - used for PickupLocation Frontend Name
custrecord_rw_cf_magento_pickup_name - used for PickupLocation Frontend Description

For details refer to \RocketWeb\NetSuiteInventoryMultiManagement\Model\Mapper\ToMagento\Location::transformToMagento().

Saving Sources

After fields map, the Connector saves the source using \Magento\InventoryApi\Api\SourceRepositoryInterface.

Please note that Connector does not assign a source to a specific stock. This should be done manually by Magento Admin.
