NSC | SuiteFlow (Workflow Mgr) Tip:Access Workflow Fields under the same Server Trigger they are set
It is a best practice to access the value of workflow custom fields on the same server trigger where it was set. Otherwise, a loss of value may occur.
For instance, a workflow field set on the Before Record Load trigger must be accessed on Before Record Load as well to get the value that was set on that field.
Accessing the workflow field on a different server trigger will return a null value.

Re: Details to Integrate the ODBC user for TM1 System
Hi Matan,
I find this a little puzzling because the explanation says "direct cloud-to-cloud ODBC" whereas 'DSN' and 'Description' sound like settings you would have locally (either user or system DSN). So for example, the screenshot below shows an ODBC connection I have on my laptop where you see the DSN (Name: below) and description (of course the account ID and role ID would have your details in). This allows me to extract data from NetSuite to Excel.
In other word for cloud-to-cloud connectivity I would have thought the settings you have found would be sufficient.
Hope this might help you some.
Kind regards,
Steve Barrett

NetSuite Admin Tips: Customize General Ledger and make Custom Segment as a filter
Custom Segments are utilized by NetSuite users to serve as an additional identifier in their transactions. Most of these custom segments are G/L impacting and are needed in analyzing reports such as General Ledger. When running the report, it is helpful to users to show the transactions and balances for a particular segment only, thus filtering the report with ease is necessary.
For example, a user created a custom segment to identify the region of their transactions:
Here's how you can do it:
1.) Navigate to Reports > Financial > General Ledger
2.) Click Customize
3.) Go to Filters section
4.) Add Fields
Expand Financial folder > Custom Segment subfolder > Click Name (You can also add the column using the same steps in the Edit Columns section)
5.) Initially select a segment
6.) Click Show in filter region
7.) Save and run the report
Result:
Users can now filter the transactions by custom segment
Users can also select the sections easily by clicking the double chevron in the custom segment filter:
Have you tried this report customization? Feel free to share your tips!
Hope this helps
