Creating saved search in suitescript using nlapiSearchRecord. All the column value returns except one column which is type is custom list.
How could I get value of custom list?
To get the value I'm using code lines below.
columns[0] = new nlobjSearchColumn( 'customlist' );
var searchresults = nlapiSearchRecord( 'customrecord', null, filters, columns );
To get the column value
var listValue = searchresult.getListValue( 'customlist' );
I assume you've simplified your code in trying to be clear or confidential but there will never be fields or records with those ids.
from a search you would do:
var searchResult = searchResults[0];
searchResult.getValue(fieldId, joinName, summary)
// or in your case
searchResult.getValue('customlist'); //returns id of list value or simple result of non-list/record fields
or (and I think this is the one you want)
searchResult.getText('customlist'); // returns the display value of the list/record field.

When adding a new inventoryitem through the API we have a few list based custom fields we need to fill in. I want to be able to use the string value for the field but when I try to the call errors out.
We have a custom list with two values:
InternalId 1 is "LTL"
InternalId 2 is "FedEx"
I have tried sending the value across as a StringCustomFieldRef and when setting the value to the string value of the "LTL" we get an invalid ref error. When setting the value to the internalId of 1 it works.
I also tried using a SelectCustomFieldRef and when setting the value->name to the string value of "LTL" it errors like we did not pass the value at all. When we set value->internalId to 1 it works.
Is it possible to just pass in the string value?
Does not work:
$customField1 = new StringCustomFieldRef();
$customField1 ->value = "LTL";
$customField1 ->scriptId = 'custitem_zu_zu_fulfill_pref';
Works:
$customField1 = new StringCustomFieldRef();
$customField1 ->value = "1";
$customField1 ->scriptId = 'custitem_zu_zu_fulfill_pref';
This is the error response:
<platformCore:statusDetail type="ERROR">
<platformCore:code>INVALID_KEY_OR_REF</platformCore:code>
<platformCore:message>Invalid custitem_zu_zu_fulfill_pref reference key LTL.</platformCore:message>
</platformCore:statusDetail>
No, unfortunately you cannot set a field with the Name value--you will have to use the internalId. If your custom field is list-based, then you should be using SelectCustomFieldRef or MultiSelectCustomFieldRef.
If you wish to use the Name value, you can perform a CustomListSearchBasic to get the Name and internalId of each item, and match that to your chosen Name.
using (IDbConnection db = dbFactory.OpenDbConnection()) {
List<long> x = db.SelectLazy<long>(
"SELECT Id FROM MyTable").ToList();
}
Why is x null?
It works when I use Select instead of SelectLazy, or when I use SelectLazy on the entire row and not just the Id.
In OrmLite you use different API's to match the results you're after, e.g:
Select* API's for returning a List<MyTable>
Column* API's for returning a column of field values, e.g List<long>
Single* API's for returning a Single Row, e.g Table
Scalar* API's for returning a Single field value, e.g long
So to select a column as a List of fields you use db.Column, e.g:
var results = db.Column<long>(db.From<MyTable>().Select(x => x.Id));
These also have Raw Sql* equivalents, e.g:
var results = db.SqlColumn<long>("SELECT Id FROM MyTable");
I cannot for the life of me get the returned value from a search in NetSuite. When I use the debugger I can see the value, but I cannot access it.
var columns = new nlobjSearchColumn('custentity_employeenumber', null, 'max');
var results = new nlapiSearchRecord('employee', null, filters, columns);
var result = results[0].getValue('custentity_employeenumber');
Every time the debugger shows the result variable as null...I don't get it. I can see the value in the debugger...
I really just need the 2014103...or am I building the search wrong?
When you put a summary on a search column, you must specify the summary when you retrieve the value as well. So, because you have:
new nlobjSearchColumn('custentity_employeenumber', null, 'max');
you must retrieve the value with:
results[0].getValue('custentity_employeenumber', null, 'max');
Using NetSuite is it possible to embed a search within another search? I have a search that I need that will be effectively using another search's results in the criteria.
The basic structure of my search is:
Return all non-inventory skus, starting with a specific prefix,
Where the occurrence of the previously mentioned skus on a custom field on
Inventory-Part records is greater than 0.
This is then intended to be used for alerts
I'm not sure how to build this within NetSuite's search builder.
I don't think this pertains to any scripting as m_cheung suggested.
To answer your question, yes this is doable via saved search.
Transaction > Management > Saved Search > New
Select 'Item' from the list
In the criteria section:
Type = 'Non-Inventory Items'
External ID = starts with (...your desired prefix) (NOTE: Assuming that prefix is the external ID from your question)
Select the Custom field and criteria is greater than 0.
Save and Run to confirm if this is the desired result.
using nlapiSearchRecord(RECORDTYPE, JOIN_, __SEARCHFILTERSARRAY, __SEARCHCOLUMNSARRAY) you can return the results of a search and pass the returned data further into script logic
for example if you build search1 using a searchFilter array and a searchColumn array then pass these arrays into nlapiSearchRecord('item'), you can assign this call to a variable:
var searchresults = nlapiSearchRecord('item', null, searchFiltersArray, searchColumnsArray);
then using searchresults (which is an nlobjSearchResults object) you can pull out your returned search data for criteria in search2:
if(searchresults)
{
for(i=0;i<searchresults.length; i++)
{
var search2FilterAndColumnData = searchresults[i].getAllColumns();
}
}
You can use a saved search for creating another search in suitescript.
Somewhat like ,
var arrSearchResult = nlapiSearchRecord( null , SAVED_SEARCH_ID , FILTERS , COLUMNS);
I have a lookup field in sharepoint which just references another list. I wonder how do I programatically enumerate all possible values for this field?
For example, my lookup field "Actual City" refers list "Cities" and column "Title", I have 3 cities there. In code I would like to get list of all possible values for field "Actual City", smth like (metacode, sorry):
SPFieldLookup f = myList["Actual City"];
Collection availableValues = f.GetAllPossibleValues();
//this should return collection with all cities a user might select for the field
I wrote some code to handle this for my project just the other day. Perhaps it will help.
public static List<SPFieldLookupValue> GetLookupFieldValues(SPList list, string fieldName)
{
var results = new List<SPFieldLookupValue>();
var field = list.Fields.GetField(fieldName);
if (field.Type != SPFieldType.Lookup) throw new SPException(String.Format("The field {0} is not a lookup field.", fieldName));
var lookupField = field as SPFieldLookup;
var lookupList = list.ParentWeb.Lists[Guid.Parse(lookupField.LookupList)];
var query = new SPQuery();
query.Query = String.Format("<OrderBy><FieldRef Name='{0}'/></OrderBy>", lookupField.LookupField);
foreach (SPListItem item in lookupList.GetItems(query))
{
results.Add(new SPFieldLookupValue(item.ID, item[lookupField.LookupField].ToString()));
}
return results;
}
Then to use it, your code would look something like this:
var list = SPContext.Current.Web.Lists["My List"];
var results = GetLookupFieldValues(list, "Actual City");
foreach (SPFieldLookupValue result in results)
{
var value = result.LookupValue;
var id = result.LookupId;
}
I think there is no explicit method returning what you want. But the SPFieldLookup class stores all the info you need to request this information manually: LookupField and LookupList
So you could retrieve the information by getting it form the list you lookup field uses. To make it reusable you could implement it as a Extension Method. So the next time you could really call f.GetAllPossibleValues();.
As I understand you want to query all values that are in use?
If so, you would have to query items where Actual City is not null, query would look something like:
<Where><IsNotNull><FieldRef Name='Actual City'/></IsNotNull></Where>
Then, for each queried item you would
List<SPFieldLookupValue> result = new List<SPFieldLookupValue>(returnedItemCount * 5);
foreach (SPListItem item in queriedItems) {
object lookup = item["Actual City"];
SPFieldLookupValueCollection lookupValues = new SPFIeldLookupValueCollection(
(lookup != null) ? lookup.ToString() : ""
);
foreach (SPFieldLookupValue lookupValue in lookupValues) {
if (!result.Contains(lookupValue)) {
result.Add(lookupValue);
}
}
}
Or you could use HashTable where LookupId would be string and LookupValue would be int id and then check if HashTable.ContainsKey(lookupId)... must be faster to find an integer in hashtable rather than string in list, but the resource intensive part is to probably query all items where that field contains some value and then loop...
If you want to enumerate all possible values, that means you basically want to get all the Title field values from all the items in the Cities list. I don't think there is a method like GetAllPossibleValues() in SharePoint, but you can either just list all the items in Cities and get their titles, if there's just a few, or use a CAML query if there's plenty.
