Help with departments permission

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

Based on the conversations, there are a few ways to manage department permissions in NetSuite: 1. Restricting Users by Department: NetSuite's system is primarily set up for subsidiary restrictions, and department restrictions can be a bit hit and miss. However, you can try to inactivate the parent department to restrict users from posting anything into it. This can be a bit tricky, so be sure to follow the instructions in SA 36877. 2. Setting Up Multiple Departments with Approval Limits: You can set up a custom record called "department approver" where you can select an individual at certain approver limits. This can be used by the workflow to select the appropriate individual to approve, for example, a vendor bill. This method can be useful if you have multiple subsidiaries and departments. Remember, these are just suggestions based on previous conversations and may not work perfectly in your specific situation. Always test any changes in a sandbox environment before implementing them in your live account. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
