SSEO - Enabling SuperSync Email Support for Team Selling in NetSuite
Overview
When Team Selling is enabled in NetSuite, the standard Sales Rep field is removed from both the user interface and backend on records such as leads, prospects, and customers. It is replaced by the Sales Team sublist, which allows multiple sales reps to be assigned to a single record, each with a defined role and contribution percentage.
This change prevents the SuperSync Email for Outlook add-in from creating new records properly, since it relies on the standard Sales Rep dropdown, which is no longer available when Team Selling is active.
To ensure new record creation continues to function as expected, this guide provides the required configuration steps to adapt SuperSync to work with Team Selling.
Prerequisites
Admin-level access in NetSuite
SuperSync Email for Outlook integration already installed and configured
Team Selling is enabled in NetSuite (via Setup > Sales > Preferences)
Step-by-Step Configuration
Step 1: Update Field List/Record Reference
Field: SuperSync Sales Rep Role
Action: Change the List/Record property of this field to:
Sales Role
Why: In Team Selling, each rep is assigned a specific role. This update ensures the SuperSync Sales Rep Role
field references the appropriate list for role selection.
Steps:
Go to Customization > Lists, Records, & Fields > Entity Fields
Locate the field
Under Type, set List/Record to
Sales Role
Under the Display tab, set Display Type to
Normal
Save the field, then reopen it.
Go to the Sourcing & Filtering tab
Filter Using:
Sales Role
Compare Type:
Not Equal
Value:
None
Optional
If needed, you can add additional filters to narrow the dropdown list to specific roles or users, depending on your business rules.
Step 2: Enable SuperSync Team Selling User Event Deployments
These scripts ensure the rep and role data are synced correctly for record creation.
Scripts to enable
customdeploy_ng_team_selling_ue_prospect

Step 3: Update SuperSync Email Forms
Since NetSuite removes the native Sales Rep field in Team Selling, you must adjust the forms.
Why
You need to ensure that SuperSync Email forms use the correct custom fields because the standard Sales Rep field is no longer available in Team Selling mode.
Instructions
Go to Customization > Lists, Records, & Fields > Record Types
Locate
SuperSync Email Record Form
(See screenshot showing the record type list)Click on List to view all forms that SuperSync Email has access to.
Open each SuperSync Email Record Form you want to modify.
Replace the standard
Sales Rep
field withSuperSync Sales Rep
Replace the
Sales Rep Role
field withSuperSync Sales Rep Role
Save the form layout.
Final Validation
Open or create a new lead using the SuperSync Email Add-in.
Check that the
SuperSync Sales Rep Role
field appears and references the correctSales Role
list.Confirm the
SuperSync Sales Rep
field is populated.Verify that records save successfully without errors.
Ensure that new record creation works properly with Team Selling enabled.
