It worked. I needed to log out then back, and it updated. Thank you!
Re: How do I change my profile name?
Hello User_F2RD3,
Please review the attached screen print and follow steps 1, 2, and 3.
Step 3: When you select the pencil icon next to your display name, you will be redirected to the community profile page, where you can change your display name.
Please let us know if that changes your name from User_F2RD3 as needed.
If that does not work, we should wait for one of the Gurus to advise.
Thank you,
Todd Niedringhaus
Re: How can a NAW Licensed Author share a workbook?
Hi @User_F2RD3,
Manuel here from NSAW support team.
This behavior is by design, not an environment issue.
While the NAW Licensed Author role allows users to create and share decks/cards, it does not include catalog administration privileges. Specifically, it does not grant the ability to:
- Create folders under /Shared Folders/
- Move content into Shared Folders (without write access)
- Manage folder-level permissions
The reason you’re seeing:
- No option to create a shared folder
- “OK” button disabled when moving content
is because your role likely does not have write access to Shared Folders, or you don’t have an elevated role such as BI Service Administrator.
To proceed, one of the following is required:
- Grant write access to a specific Shared Folder location
- Or assign a role with broader catalog permissions
Re: Script reading report data
Hi, if you’re referring to running a report from the NetSuite “Reports” UI via script, that isn’t currently supported. As an alternative, you can replicate the report using SuiteQL or a saved search and return the results that way.

or find similar articles from this site how to re-create famous NetSuite reports.
Maybe Tim Dietrich blog has something too.
Just for reference below:

o EMAIL TEMPLATE FOR VENDOR PAYMENTS = Standard Vendor Payment.xml

Re: Is it possible to extract Financial reports in another Fiscal calendar ?
@MoonK , Thank you for your response.
Your approach could be considered. When loading the budget, we could temporarily change the calendar from June–July and then revert it back to January–December for reporting purposes.
However, it will require some testing for budgetary side.
Thank you.
Re: Saved search field in workflow
Hi @Fartleby ,
The saved search cannot be used directly in a workflow on a transaction to identify the approver based on the flag on Employee record.
Workflow actions cannot reliably “read” results from a saved search column.
In particular:
- A Saved Search can be:
- Used for conditions (“does at least one result exist?”)
- Used to trigger workflow states
- But workflow actions (Send Email, Set Field Value, etc.) cannot reliably consume search result columns as values
To achieve this through the workflow, you can deploy a workflow action script that identifies the employee or the employee's email based on the flag. This value can then be stored in a workflow field. So, you can reference the approver during the approval flow from that workflow field.
Alternatively, you might consider storing the approver directly in a custom field on the transaction record using a User Event script during the creation of the transaction. Once the approver is populated in the transaction record, you can reference it anywhere, including in approval workflows, other scripts, and searches.
