Additional resources additional-resources

The sections below provide additional resources that you can refer to when using the Oracle NetSuite Activities source.

Mapping mapping

Platform provides intelligent recommendations for auto-mapped fields based on the target schema or dataset that you selected. You can manually adjust mapping rules to suit your use cases. Based on your needs, you can choose to map fields directly, or use data prep functions to transform source data to derive computed or calculated values. For comprehensive steps on using the mapper interface and calculated fields, see the Data Prep UI guide.

NOTE
The fields displayed are dependent on the subscriptions that your Oracle NetSuite account has access to. For example, if you do not have access to billing, then you will not see the billing related fields.

Scheduling scheduling

When scheduling your Oracle NetSuite Activities dataflow for ingestion, you must select the following frequency and interval configuration:

Frequency
Interval
Once
1

While retrieving data, the Oracle NetSuite responds with the last modified or created date as a date format instead of a timestamp. Hence, the scheduling is limited to one day.

Once your have provided the values for your schedule, select Next.
