In NetSuite, when extending or adding functionality, development is done in the form of SuiteScript.
To do so, follow the steps below.
(1) Upload the created SuiteScript file to NetSuite.
(2) Create a script record based on the uploaded SuiteScript file.
Deploy the script record and activate it on NetSuite.
NetSuite development is performed as if it were added to an existing cloud system, so there is no need to set up a server or prepare a database separately.
By simply writing a process and deploying it in the script introduced in our previous blog entry, it is possible to extend the functionality of an existing system with a high degree of freedom.
When deploying the functionality you have created, you need to select a status.
The statuses are “Test” and “Released.” With the “Test” status, the script is activated only for your account, and you can check its behavior even in the middle of development.
If you can create a script without any problems and want to activate it for the entire account, simply change the status to “Released” to complete the process, allowing you to add functions and implement them easily.
Also, debugging and error messages can be easily accessed from the script record or script deployment screen, which reduces the burden on the developer when implementing the script.
