This might possibly be the best example ever of how SuiteScript can help. See, a relationship-aware behavior like this is near impossible to represent through standard settings... that's where SuiteScript comes in. You will need to read about client scripts, how to create and deploy them. Once you get that down, you would…

Steve, Try adding a tasklink category named Custom to this custom tab. Thanks, Yang I've done some more experimenting with this and found a couple interesting things... Yes, adding the Custom category to a custom tab will allow that tab to be available in a SuiteLet Links list. I've also found that I can create custom…

Sounds like yet another very good enhancement. I will bring this to the attention of product management. Thanks, Yang Yang, We also need a list of records REALLY bad (well, I do) Use Case: Parameterized SuiteLet that will take a different action based on the type of record it's working with. I would like to setup the…

You need to make your OWN list of course!! Sigh.... [LIST] [*]Country [*]state [*]Address records [*]Record Types [*]Entity status [*]Transaction status [*]Shipping methods [*]Item Types [*]etc [*]etc [*]etc [*]...[/LIST] All locked down data sources that we can't use in our customizations. The result is users creating…

That would be nice, I haven't needed it yet but I'm sure I will get there. I'm curious if you were to move all the subtabs to a "buffer tab" then add them back in the order you wanted if it would maintain that order? Then again I don't even know if you can move subtabs to another parent tab so that could be a stupid…

thanks evan, i found it fine... very surprised that only a small number of people have voted for this! "Netsuite Business Operating System doesn't have Date/Time type. You actually need to combine two fields and add junk script all over the place to combine and split them." I would think that certain things would be above…

Hi, I have a custom form with 20 drop down fields all looking at a custom list called "REFERENCE". The reference is always just a couple of digits long and the form looks crazy as the drop downs appear about 20-30 characters long in edit mode. Does anyone know of a way to reduce the visual size of the drop-down box to only…

Actually I think I know what might be going on - it may be because you are the owner of the custom list. Can you try this as another user? Winner! That was the issue. Now, does that seem correct to you? Do you think the Role Permissions should be the authority?

As far as I know this isn't possible directly. You could restrict user's access to creating custom searches, then deploy searches that show only what you want. In the case of forms, you can (as I'm sure you know) create custom forms that will hide the fields, then deploy those forms to your users. Field level permissions…

Is this documented in the help? I just checked, it's not or if it is, it's seriously burried somewhere.

s...ee the record in role context... Does that mean the owner should be limited by the role they are running under? In other words... being the owner makes no difference? If that is what you are saying I 100% agree. If not, I 100% disagree. :)

Does the role have custom list permission? If no they shouldn't be able to create new entries. I'm not seeing it, no. I found on the Setup tab that I could add the "Custom Lists" permission. I did this and set it to "View", logged out, logged back in. I'm still able to create new entries in the list. Is there anything else…

It definitely was a request to have owners always be able to access the record even if their role did not have permission. This is so you don't have to give lots of "admin" roles out to people that are managing a particular custom record. I can see that, however it's more of a hassle to kick another user out of the system…

You want to display monthly revenue for.... all customers? Anyway, I think you can create the field as a non-stored, then set the value in a BeforeLoad script. I'm not sure this will work, but I think it will. Create a saved search that spits out the data you want, then execute it in the BeforeLoad and assign to the field.…

Are you referring to email (mail merge) templates or form templates? Well... I'm not sure ;) To be hoenst, the whole template system design is pretty confusing at times. What I want to do is specify a "Fax Template" (which should be grouped with email templates if you ask me) and a "Merge Attachment Template" (PDF) When I…

Just ran into this again and found my own thread while searching :p Anyone know why the Role field isn't an available filter? NetSuite?

World record for finding the solution after posting the question!! It was my last sentence that made me think to check something A quick glance at the source shows the location being displayed for the columns, but nothing for the body. Sure enough, if you turn off the display for location in the columns the body location…

on the search that defines the custom view? Try clicking "edit view" and looking at the results tab. Thanks, -e Ah! I had it in my head it was set on the record properties or field properties. Thanks for the help, Steve

Hi Steve, As a result of your post here, I filed enhancement request #136422. Please file a case and attach your case to this if you'd like to track the progress of the request. Thanks! Case created (654505), thanks for creating the ER!

Looks like the category field also isn't available as a filter.

Did you try source list=your customer link field, source filter by=parent? Yes, that's exactly how I had it setup. The same setup works with a contact list field on a transaction, but not on a custom record.

Hi Brad, Thanks for the reply, I appreciate it. My needs/design have changed and I'm wondering if what I'd like to do now is even possible. I will explain as clearly as I can. It's similar to what I had originally posted except instead of a sales order I'm working with a custom record. It's like this: Customer has child…

hi Brad,are you saying that you have this working currently or that it should work? I only ask because I have the same setup as you have described and it doesn't work for me. I'm on a plane right now so I can't check, but when I get back I will review my settings and see if I'm missing something. you've given me renewed…

Fair enough, I get it. I won't be filing an ER, I'll just work around it as the others have suggested. -Steve

Word. It can be frustrating to say the least...

you can configure a beforeLoad script to fire whenever a transaction is printed. Yang, I didn't know this was possible (fire UE when printing) and I'm VERY encouraged by it... Two questions: [LIST=1] [*]Will it work in batch printing? (IE: Print Check and Forms) [*]Is there a way to fire a UE script before a MERGE…

Well, you can easily convert those to positive #s by adding 24, as in decode(greatest(0,XXX),0,XXX+24,XXX) Thanks, -e You also have the ansi SQL ABS() function at your disposal. http://sqlnut.atw.hu/sqlnut2-chp-4-sect-4.html

This is a duplicate of what I posted in the general Customization area because there is a custom field component to this question. I'm hoping someone can offer insight. Here is a great example why cross posting is a bad idea and can waste people's time.

I figured out what the problem is. When the child record is opened in it's own form, the sourcing works. When I add/edit the child record from the machine or list of the parent record the sourcing doesn't work (shows ALL contacts in the list) Smells like a bug to me.

Here is the ER info: Enhancement 135295 List > Relationships > Customer: Edit mode: Custom field of a custom record sourced from contact list shows all the contact in the list although it is filtered by parent. Granted the description isn't exactly accurate, but it's like that sometimes. It should be something closer to:…
