NetSuite Tips - Merging duplicate customers as subcustomer using N/task

Harikrishnan N

Below given an example of merging duplicate customers as subcustomer. Given here is some static internal ids of customers for reference. You can use search or whatever to provide dynamic values for merging.

let cusTask = task.create({

taskType: task.TaskType.ENTITY_DEDUPLICATION

})

cusTask.entityType = task.DedupeEntityType.CUSTOMER;

cusTask.dedupeMode = task.DedupeMode.MAKE_MASTER_PARENT;                
cusTask.masterSelectionMode = task.MasterSelectionMode.SELECT_BY_ID

                cusTask.masterRecordId = '112255' //master record ID. You can find master customer record ID based on your search

                cusTask.recordIds = ['2255','66332'] // internal ids of duplicates


                Or to merge based on recent activity, use,

                cusTask.masterSelectionMode = task.MasterSelectionMode.MOST_RECENT_ACTIVITY

                cusTask.recordIds = ['112255','2255','66332']; // provide internal id of all records. NetSuite will find most recent activity records automatically


            let taskId = cusTask.submit();
