Scripting tip 11 - WOW I can create PDF!!!!

edited Dec 2, 2019 5:59PM in SuiteCloud / Customization 11 comments

Today, I discovered the nlapiXMLToPDF(_str); method in NetSuite SuiteScript API. Using BFO (Big Faceless Organization) tag library, you can freely generate customized PDF document to either keep in your NetSuite Document repository or send to your customers.  What’s really cool is that BFO is already integrated into NetSuite, so as SuiteScript developers, you do not need to download anything.  Check out the API in NetSuite Documentation. (SuiteScript API > SuiteScript Functions > XML APIs > nlapiXMLToPDF)
