As much as we plan and prepare, most projects will run into situations that throw either budget, schedule, or both off tracks. Sometimes you can save the go live date or budget and sometimes you need to make a change. This is where the project manager is worth their weight in gold. Generally speaking, there are 3 stages a project manager goes through when a project is off track. How well a project manager handles each stage is a direct impact to the success of the project.

Why are roles and permissions important?
Roles and permissions are how NetSuite controls what functions or records a user can or can't access. A role is defined as a compilation of permissions or restrictions; permissions and restrictions are usually given around the functional role of each user. Each user is granted access to NetSuite with a specific role(s). From an administration point of view, permissions can be changed at a role level instead of for each individual user, making it easy to manage permissions for groups of users.

A great way to reduce manual efforts is to use the standard Electronic Bank Payments function in NetSuite. Instead of manually entering in the ACH payments in your bank's interface, you can generate a standard NACHA file that can be uploaded to your bank. This is a free and easy bundle installation and setup.

In my experience, people generally hate to escalate. Many team members think escalation is snitching on a fellow team member or will reflect bad on their own performance. To a project manager, escalation is just another method of communication; it's how we can foresee and manage situations, and all projects have "situations" that impact scope, budget, or time.
