REGEXP_REPLACE not working as expected in SuiteScript search
Hello,
I have a strange problem with a scheduled script I'm working on where REGEX_REPLACE does not seem to work correctly.
When used in a saved search in the UI the expression works as expected. But when using the exact same expression for a nlobjSearchColumn, it does not perform any replacements.
[CODE]columns.push(new nlobjSearchColumn('formulatext', null, 'group')
.setFormula("CASE WHEN {item.type} = 'Kit/Package' THEN REGEXP_REPLACE({item.memberitem}, '^([^:]+) : \1.*$', '\1') ELSE COALESCE({item.parent},{item}) END")
.setSort());[/CODE]
The reason for replacing like this is that we use multiple item records for different versions of the same item, e.g. 18751-1, 18751-2, 18751-3 which all have the parent item 18751. For demand planning I need to summarize our sales across all versions of the same item. However {item.memberitem} will come up as e.g. "18751 : 18751-2".
