edited Aug 19, 2025 1:52AM in SuiteCloud / Customization

In NetSuite, some companies may need to add a Custom Field to their transactions to know when it was Approved or set to Pending. This article will guide you on how to achieve this using a Saved Search and a Custom Field.

In this scenario, we'll be using a Custom Field as the Status field:
