Creating alerts from changes at the item level in Netsuite - netsuite

I am trying to incorporate a check at the item line level when creating an invoice. Basically if they are adding an item within a certain category (custitem8) i need an alert to pop up for the sales rep.
Not sure if this should be using fieldchanged or validateline.
Sorry Im not really a programmer and am learning on the job mostly by trial and error. Thanks for your help.
function ValidateLine(type)
{
if (nlapiGetCurrentLineItemValue('item', 'custitem8') = 'Order in Only - Not For Trade Guide')
{
alert("Order In Only, Please contact Purchasing");
}
return true;
}

The suggested code will not work, instead of using nlapiGetLineItemValue use nlapiGetCurrentLineItemValue.
the code should look like this.
postSourcing(sublistId, fieldId) {
if(sublistId == "item" && fieldId == "item") {
var itemId = nlapiGetCurrentLineItemValue(sublistId, fieldId);
var category = nlapiLookupField("item", itemId, "custitem8");
if(category == "Order in Only - Not For Trade Guide") {
alert("Order In Only, Please contact Purchasing");
}
}
}

I'm assuming you just need an alert when the user selects a line Item? If so, I would suggest using postSourcing(sublistId, fieldId) (though using validateLine(sublistId) works just fine).
As for the actual function content, I'm assuming (based on the field ID) "custitem8" is a field on the Item record. If so, you will have to load the field from the Item record first.
Based on my understanding of your post, I would go about it like this:
postSourcing(sublistId, fieldId) {
if(sublistId == "item" && fieldId == "item") {
var itemId = nlapiGetLineItemValue("item", "item");
var category = nlapiLookupField("item", itemId, "custitem8");
if(category == "Order in Only - Not For Trade Guide") {
alert("Order In Only, Please contact Purchasing");
}
}
}
And just a note, I don't really know the data type of the "custitem8" field, so I'm just assuming it's a free-form text field.

SuiteScript Auto Populate Department Line Item Fields

Code Portion Click Here
I am trying to populate the Department line item field as per the Department Transaction Body Field, please assist to check if my codes are right.. i am new to suitescript.
var itemDepartment = nlapiGetFieldValue('department');
var nlapiSetCurrentLineItemValue = nlapiSetCurrentLineItemValue('item', 'department_display', itemDepartment);
It keeps stating that department_display is not an internal ID.
Please advise.
Thank you.
Can you try setting text instead,if it is a client script.
The id of the department column field is 'department'
var itemDepartment = nlapiGetFieldText('department');
nlapiSetCurrentLineItemText('item', 'department', itemDepartment);
The id of the department column field is also department, same as the header field.
Therefore, the second line of you snippet should be:
nlapiSetCurrentLineItemValue('item','department',itemDepartment);
EDIT
As per the comment below, please find below the full code snippet to populate lines department from the customer on before submit:
function onBeforeSubmit(type) {
if (type == 'create' || type == 'edit') {
var customerId = nlapiGetFieldValue('entity');
var itemDepartment = nlapiLookupField('customer',customerId, 'custentity_department');
var itemCount = nlapiGetLineItemCount('item');
for (var i = 1; i <= itemCount; i++) {
nlapiSetLineItemValue('item', 'department', i, itemDepartment);
}
}
}
Also, as a side note, you don't have to load the whole record in order to get a field value. You should use nlapiLookupField instead. It's much faster, safer and less api usage.

Netsuite Userevent Script

I have a userevent script to change the Field in Contract record from PO record. The Script is running fine. But whenever I edit a contract record and try to submit it : It throws the error "Another user has updated this record since you began editing it. Please close the record and open it again to make your changes".
May I know the reason behind this ?

The User Event script executes as the Contract record is being saved to the database. At the same time, you are loading a second copy of the record from the database and trying to submit the copy as well. This is causing the error you're seeing.
You fix this by just using nlapiSetFieldValue to set the appropriate field on the Contract.
I might also recommend getting more familiar with JavaScript by going through the JavaScript Guide over at MDN. In particular, take a look at the Boolean description so that you know how JavaScript evaluates Boolean expressions. This will help you greatly reduce the amount of code you've written here, as many of your conditionals are unnecessary.
What userevent do you have? It is happening depending on what type of user event and API you are using. Looking at your code, you are trying to load contract record that is already updated at the database. So you might consider below to address your issue. Hope, it helps.
If it is a before submit, you don't need to load the record where the script is deployed.
Just use nlapiGet* and nlapiSet* to get and set values. You also don't need to use nlapiSubmitRecord to reflect the change. With before submit, it executes before the record is being saved to the database. So your changes will still be reflected.
Then if it is after submit, it will be executed after the record has been saved to the database, Thus you might use the following API depending on your needs. Actually, this is the best practice to make sure the solution .
nlapiGetNewRecord - only use this if the script only needs to retrieve info from header and sublists. And nothing to set.
nlapiLookupField - use this if the script only needs to get value/s at the header and nothing from the line.
nlapiSubmitField - the script don't need to load and submit record if the changes only on header. Just use this API.
nlapiLoadRecord and nlapiSubmitRecord- use the former if the script will have changes at the line and then use the latter api to commit it on the database.
Being a user event script code, The code you showed is very not good considering performance.
Here is the sample you can merge
var stRecordid = nlapiGetRecordId(); //returns the contract id
// Every record has an internal id associated with it. No need to add condition explicitly to check if its null
var stRecordtype = nlapiGetRecordType();
var fields = ['entityid','companyname'];
var columns = nlapiLookupField(stRecordtype, stRecordid, fields);
var stContractID = columns.entityid;
var stCompanyName = columns.companyname;
nlapiLogExecution('debug','stContractID/stCompanyName',stContractID+'/'+stCompanyName);
var stConcatenate = stContractID+" : "+stCompanyName; //Concatenate the two Fields to get the result which needs to be found in PO
//
//your code of search
//you can improve that code also by using nlapilook up
nlapiSubmitField(stRecordtype, stRecordid, 'custentityranking_vendor_name', 'name to be updated');

Distinct values in Azure Search Suggestions?

I am offloading my search feature on a relational database to Azure Search. My Products tables contains columns like serialNumber, PartNumber etc.. (there can be multiple serialNumbers with the same partNumber).
I want to create a suggestor that can autocomplete partNumbers. But in my scenario I am getting a lot of duplicates in the suggestions because the partNumber match was found in multiple entries.
How can I solve this problem ?
The Suggest API suggests documents, not queries. If you repeat the partNumber information for each serialNumber in your index and then suggest based on partNumber, you will get a result for each matching document. You can see this more clearly by including the key field in the $select parameter. Azure Search will eliminate duplicates within the same document, but not across documents. You will have to do that on the client side, or build a secondary index of partNumbers just for suggestions.
See this forum thread for a more in-depth discussion.
Also, feel free to vote on this UserVoice item to help us prioritize improvements to Suggestions.
I'm facing this problem myself. My solution does not involve a new index (this will only get messy and cost us money).
My take on this is a while-loop adding 'UserIdentity' (in your case, 'partNumber') to a filter, and re-search until my take/top-limit is met or no more suggestions exists:
public async Task<List<MachineSuggestionDTO>> SuggestMachineUser(string searchText, int take, string[] searchFields)
{
var indexClientMachine = _searchServiceClient.Indexes.GetClient(INDEX_MACHINE);
var suggestions = new List<MachineSuggestionDTO>();
var sp = new SuggestParameters
{
UseFuzzyMatching = true,
Top = 100 // Get maximum result for a chance to reduce search calls.
};
// Add searchfields if set
if (searchFields != null && searchFields.Count() != 0)
{
sp.SearchFields = searchFields;
}
// Loop until you get the desired ammount of suggestions, or if under desired ammount, the maximum.
while (suggestions.Count < take)
{
if (!await DistinctSuggestMachineUser(searchText, take, searchFields, suggestions, indexClientMachine, sp))
{
// If no more suggestions is found, we break the while-loop
break;
}
}
// Since the list might me bigger then the take, we return a narrowed list
return suggestions.Take(take).ToList();
}
private async Task<bool> DistinctSuggestMachineUser(string searchText, int take, string[] searchFields, List<MachineSuggestionDTO> suggestions, ISearchIndexClient indexClientMachine, SuggestParameters sp)
{
var response = await indexClientMachine.Documents.SuggestAsync<MachineSearchDocument>(searchText, SUGGESTION_MACHINE, sp);
if(response.Results.Count > 0){
// Fix filter if search is triggered once more
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(sp.Filter))
{
sp.Filter += " and ";
}
foreach (var result in response.Results.DistinctBy(r => new { r.Document.UserIdentity, r.Document.UserName, r.Document.UserCode}).Take(take))
{
var d = result.Document;
suggestions.Add(new MachineSuggestionDTO { Id = d.UserIdentity, Namn = d.UserNamn, Hkod = d.UserHkod, Intnr = d.UserIntnr });
// Add found UserIdentity to filter
sp.Filter += $"UserIdentity ne '{d.UserIdentity}' and ";
}
// Remove end of filter if it is run once more
if (sp.Filter.EndsWith(" and "))
{
sp.Filter = sp.Filter.Substring(0, sp.Filter.LastIndexOf(" and ", StringComparison.Ordinal));
}
}
// Returns false if no more suggestions is found
return response.Results.Count > 0;
}
public async Task<List<string>> SuggestionsAsync(bool highlights, bool fuzzy, string term)
{
SuggestParameters sp = new SuggestParameters()
{
UseFuzzyMatching = fuzzy,
Top = 100
};
if (highlights)
{
sp.HighlightPreTag = "<em>";
sp.HighlightPostTag = "</em>";
}
var suggestResult = await searchConfig.IndexClient.Documents.SuggestAsync(term, "mysuggestion", sp);
// Convert the suggest query results to a list that can be displayed in the client.
return suggestResult.Results.Select(x => x.Text).Distinct().Take(10).ToList();
}
After getting top 100 and using distinct it works for me.
You can use the Autocomplete API for that where does the grouping by default. However, if you need more fields together with the result, like, the partNo plus description it doesn't support it. The partNo will be distinct though.

Sitecore HOWTO: Search item bucket for items with specific values

I have an item bucket with more then 30 000 items inside. What I need is to quickly search items that have particular field set to particular value, or even better is to make something like SELECT WHERE fieldValue IN (1,2,3,4) statement. Are there any ready solutions?
I searched the web and the only thing I found is "Developer's Guide to Item
Buckets and Search" but there is no code examples.
You need something like this. The Bucket item is an IIndexable so it can be searched using Sitecore 7 search API.
This code snippet below can easily be adapted to meet your needs and it's just a question of modifying the where clause.if you need any further help with the sitecore 7 syntax just write a comment on the QuickStart blog post below and I'll get back to you.
var bucketItem = Sitecore.Context.Database.GetItem(bucketPath);
if (bucketItem != null && BucketManager.IsBucket(bucketItem))
{
using (var searchContext = ContentSearchManager.GetIndex(bucketItem as IIndexable).CreateSearchContext())
{
var result = searchContext.GetQueryable<SearchResultItem().Where(x => x.Name == itemName).FirstOrDefault();
if(result != null)
Context.Item = result.GetItem();
}
}
Further reading on my blog post here:
http://coreblimey.azurewebsites.net/sitecore-7-search-quick-start-guide/
Using Sitecore Content Editor:
Go to the bucket item then In search tab, start typing the following (replace fieldname and value with actual field name and value):
custom:fieldname|value
Then hit enter, you see the result of the query, you can multiple queries at once if you want.
Using Sitecore Content Search API:
using Sitecore.ContentSearch;
using Sitecore.ContentSearch.Linq;
using Sitecore.ContentSearch.SearchTypes;
using Sitecore.ContentSearch.Linq.Utilities
ID bucketItemID = "GUID of your bucket item";
ID templateID = "Guid of your item's template under bucket";
string values = "1,2,3,4,5";
using (var context = ContentSearchManager.GetIndex("sitecore_web_index").CreateSearchContext())
{
var predicate = PredicateBuilder.True<SearchResultItem>();
predicate = PredicateBuilder.And(item => item.TemplateId == new ID(templateID)
&& item.Paths.Contains(bucketItemID));
var innerPredicate = PredicateBuilder.False<SearchResultItem>();
foreach(string val in values.Split(','))
{
innerPredicate = PredicateBuilder.False<SearchResultItem>();
innerPredicate = innerPredicate.Or(item => item["FIELDNAME"] == val);
}
predicate = predicate.And(innerPredicate);
var result = predicate.GetResults();
List<Item> ResultsItems = new List<Item>();
foreach (var hit in result.Hits)
{
Item item = hit.Document.GetItem();
if(item !=null)
{
ResultsItems .Add(item);
}
}
}
The following links can give good start with the Search API:

how to update the subquery fields ? salesforce, soql, apex

Here is the query which will get me all the contacts have HD quality orders.
`Orderc__c[] orders = [SELECT id,customer__c, Customer__r.Number_of_HD_Orders__c,` `Quality_Code__c FROM Orderc__c where Quality_Code__c='HD'];`
then I change use these code to update the number of HD orders for each contact:
for(Orderc__c o: orders){
if(o.Customer__r.Number_of_HD_Orders__c==null)
o.Customer__r.Number_of_HD_Orders__c=0.0;
o.Customer__r.Number_of_HD_Orders__c++;
}
now, the question is how can I update the contacts. as "update orders;" will not update the contacts.
You just need to add all the contacts to a new collection and then update that:
map<Id, Contact> contacts = new map<Id, Contact>();
for(Orderc__c o: orders) {
if(o.Customer__r.Number_of_HD_Orders__c == null) {
o.Customer__r.Number_of_HD_Orders__c=0.0;
}
Contact sContact = contacts.get(o.Customer__c);
if(sContact != null) {
sContact.Number_of_HD_Orders__c++;
} else {
o.Customer__r.Number_of_HD_Orders__c++;
contacts.put(o.Customer__c, new Contact(id = o.Customer__c, Number_of_HD_Orders__c = o.Customer__r.Number_of_HD_Orders__c));
}
}
update contacts.values();
Note this is very rough, doesn't check for too many contacts in an update etc., but it should get your thinking in the right direction!
