Retrieve the Transaction Status Name via ODBC or SuiteQL
When retrieving the Transaction Status via ODBC or SuiteQL, results are displayed as symbols (i.e. A, B, C) instead of "Pending Approval, Billed", etc. This is the sample query that displays status as symbols: SELECT status FROM transaction.
In order to get the desired values of the status as their text equivalent, use BUILTIN.DF(status) instead of just status. This way, it will retrieve the status name (i.e. Pending Approval, Billed).
Sample query tested via SuiteQL in console:
FROMrequire(['N/query'], function (query) {
var csFileIdQuery = "SELECT status FROM transaction";
var results = query.runSuiteQL(csFileIdQuery).asMappedResults();
console.log(results)
