Which option is necessary for creating a custom dashboard?

To create a custom dashboard in NetSuite, it is essential to be in a role with the same center type as the dashboard you wish to create. This requirement ensures that users can access the appropriate features and functionalities aligned with their role's capabilities. Different center types in NetSuite (like Sales, Finance, or Service) come with specific configurations and permission settings, which are essential for effectively interacting with the dashboard tools.

By being in a role that matches the center type, users can fully utilize the dashboard's functionalities tailored to that area. This creates a more efficient and streamlined environment for analyzing and managing data relevant to their role in the organization. In contrast, having a developer role, being the account owner, or just having user permissions does not necessarily grant access to the specific capabilities needed to create custom dashboards as dictated by the role's center type.
