Detect "Spec. Ord" in SuiteScript on Item Lines

edited Sep 11, 2025 5:52PM in Ask A Guru 9 comments

When the potential to special order or dropship an item exists, NetSuite creates a "Spec. Ord." link on the transaction line for that item (e.g. in Sales Orders or Work Orders). Using SuiteScript, is there a way to "read" that "Spec. Ord." value, or how can we know that POs still need to be made?

We are looking to create a script that notifies the user via a banner that not all the POs have been created yet, but don't know what we should be using in SuiteScript to detect this. What is the logic that NetSuite uses?

Howdy, Stranger!
