Activate & Deactivate Solution 7 in Excel
NetSuite, Excel, and Solution 7: You do not need to be logged into NetSuite to use Solution 7, however Solution 7 must be activated in Microsoft Excel during use.
Why does Solution 7 need to be Activated in Excel for each use? After installing Solution 7 on your computer, it will default to a "deactivated" status in excel. This is because Solution 7 is sold based based on the number of concurrent users. In other words, your company can have any number of Solution 7 users on a license, but each contract specifies only a set number of users can be active at the same time. Unless you are the only Solution 7 user at your company, make sure to "deactivate" Solution 7 after each use and "activate" Solution 7 before using it again.
Activate Solution 7: Open Microsoft Excel, click "Solution 7" in the top header menu, then click "Activate" in the upper left corner of the screen (see image below). Solution 7 can only be used while it has been "activated".
Deactivate Solution 7: To deactivate Solution 7, you must close all of the open Excel files. From there, you can reopen the Excel files and select whether to activate Solution 7 again, or to leave it inactive.
