When you click on Printable Format of a record in NEHANET and print to PDF, please note if you use Microsoft Edge, it does not print the background colors. All major browsers support it (Google, Firefox, Internet Explorer, etc.), but Microsoft Edge does not allow users to print background color of web pages.
There is already a question on the Microsoft forum with many users asking the same question. Click here to read about it.
If you need the background color, please use one of the other browsers.
Please see the video below to see how to manage regions for a Regional Sales Manager user using User Region Mappings.
Starting with Release R14 of NEHANET, you can use Microsoft Active Directory to sign on to NEHANET. If during the initial setup, you already granted permission to NEHANET App to view the Office 365 User Profile, and would like to revoke it, please follow the steps below:
Step 1: Sign in to the Microsoft application registration portal
- Navigate to the Microsoft app registration portal at https://portal.office.com/.
- Sign in with your Microsoft account.
- Click on your name at the top right of the screen
- Click on My Account
- Click on App Permissions on the left tab
- Locate the NEHANET App on the right frame and click Revoke.
Starting with Release R14 of NEHANET, you can use Microsoft Active Directory to sign on to NEHANET. To achieve that, you need to register the NEHANET Application with your Microsoft Office Account. Please follow the steps below.
Step 1: Sign in to the Microsoft application registration portal
- Navigate to the Microsoft app registration portal at https://apps.dev.microsoft.com/.
- Sign in with your Microsoft account.
- Done? You should now be looking at your list of Microsoft apps, which is probably empty. Let’s change that.
Step 2: Register an app
- Select Add an app, and give it a name (e.g. crm.nehanet.com). We recommend using the NEHANET Application URL. The portal will assign your app a globally unique Application ID that you’ll use later in your code. If your app includes a server-side component that needs access tokens for calling APIs (think: Office, Azure, or your own web API), you’ll want to create an Application Secret here as well.
- Next, add the Platforms and select web-based apps. Provide a Redirect URI where sign-in messages can be sent. This will be of the form https://crm.nehanet.com/callback.html. Replace crm.nehanet.com with your NEHANET Application URL.
- Optionally, customize the look and feel of your sign-in page in the Profile section.
- Note down the Application Id.
- Click on Generate New Password and note down the Application Secret.
- Upload a Logo
- Set Home page URL as https://crm.nehanet.com/nn.jsp. Replace crm.nehanet.com with your NEHANET Application URL.
- Save your changes before moving on.
- Provide the Application Id and Application Secret to your NEHANET Contact to configure in the System.

To create a Quote for an Opportunity, go to the Related Section of the Opportunity, Select the Quote module.
Click the “+” Icon to Create an Quote.
The Customer, Opportunity Name and Part Information will carry over to Quote. You can fill the other fields as required.
We use a SMTP Mail Relay Service called “sendgrid.net” to trigger outbound email. Sometimes these emails find their way to the Junk Mail folder. We don’t control that. You could ask your Mail Administrator to whitelist both “nehanet.com” and “sendgrid.net” domain in your Mail server setup. That should help. In addition, Outlook also provides an option to mark these mail as NOT Junk. It learns as you do that and should deliver to the Inbox folder.
First Create a Quote Report with the fields you want under Settings-> My Views & Reports -> Manage Report. See this FAQ for How to Create a Report? Please search for the topic “How to Create a Report?”
Then, Click on Setting->System Administration->Task Scheduler and create a new Task Scheduler, pick the Report -> Select Specific Report -> you just created, Select the Frequency, Time and Include Email and Save it with Email Subject.
To associate/create a Call Report for an Opportunity, Search for the Opportunity, Click on Related Call Report (from Grid or Edit page) and click Create.
When companies get acquired and you want to transfer Opportunities from the acquired company to the acquiring company, you can use the merge functionality. The merge icon is available in the Account System View.
When companies change name, you can just change the Company Name in Accounts assuming you don’t have another Account with the same name in Accounts Master.
When creating an opportunity, Quote, Sample, Design Registration, etc. the header shows that the part number is mandatory, but the fields are not red-bordered. This is because Part Number is a unique field in that you add one or more Parts to an Opportunity, Quote, Sample, Design Registration, etc. It is not like other fields (Market Segment, etc.). Hence, there is no red-border around it. However any fields within the Part section will have a red border around it if they are flagged as mandatory.
End user deletes in NEHANET are soft deletes. So If an Account, Contact, Opportunity, Forecast, Quote, etc. is deleted, it is only marked for delete. The System Administrator can view the deleted records under Settings->System Administration->Deleted Records. Pick the module to see all deleted items for that module.
The System Administrator can then either restore or permanently delete the soft deleted records. Once permanently deleted, the deleted records cannot be restored.
It is recommended that the System Administrator periodically permanently delete the soft deleted items to keep the waste basket clean.

NEHANET CRM + S&OP platform uses the latest HTML technologies and a responsive design to adjust to your device form factor. While most browsers perform the same basic function, there are incompatibilities between them. We support a variety of browsers listed below.
- Chrome

We encourage customers to upgrade and stay up-to-date on the latest browser for a faster, more secure browsing experience.
Please also note that Microsoft has ended support for older browser versions. Read here.
NEHANET CRM + S&OP platform introduces a brand new User Interface (UI), which uses a responsive design to adjust to your device form factor.

When you login from a smaller form factor, you get a screen like the one below. You can navigate by clicking on the navigation icon at the top left of the screen.
You can zoom in out out using the browser settings to switch between the two modes.

One workaround is after downloading file, right-click on it and check the box “Unblock” (at lower right corner of the panel).
If you have two customers with the same name
“Test Company” with Customer Number 1234
and
“Test Company” with Customer Number 4567
In the opportunity import spreadsheet,
you can specify “Test Company #:1234 to associate with “Test Company” with Customer Number 1234
OR
you can specify “Test Company #:4567 to associate with “Test Company” with Customer Number 4567
You can have a maximum of 10 unique windows (DIV IDs) open at anytime. Once you have 10 windows open, when you open a new window, the oldest window will close.
