How To Overcome Script Execution Time Exceeded Error in Schedule script 2.0?

The disadvantage of scheduled suitescript 2.0 is that yield script functionality which is there in 1.0 has been taken away. Yield script had a great advantage of being able to resume the script from the point it stopped when time or usage limit exceeded.

As netsuite solution provider we provide a Workaround in schedule script 2.0 to overcome time exceeded error is to monitor the time taken to process the script. inIf it reaches near the time limit of 3600s after which script errors out, schedule script can be called again by netsuite customization passing the point at which it needs to resume. For eg: if you are processing 100k records and script is able to process only 50k after 55 mins, then script can be rescheduled by passing the internalid of record from which script needs to process. This internalid is passed in the script parameter.

Example code:

var startTime = new Date().getTime();

 for(var i=0;i<search.length;i++)

 {

 var endTime = new Date().getTime();
var timeElapsed = (endTime*0.001) - (startTime*0.001);
if (timeElapsed > 3300)// more than 55 mins
                {
var scheduledScriptTask = task.create({ 
                                                                            taskType: task.TaskType.SCHEDULED_SCRIPT,                                                                                  scriptId: runtime.getCurrentScript().id, 
                                                                           params: {custscript_resume_point: internalid}
                                                                             });                                                                            
}

                  //logic to process records
}

Work Around the 1000 Row Limit Returned by Saved Searches in Netsuite

nlapiSearchRecord can return only upto 1000 rows. But there is a work around to retrieve more than 1000 rows. This can be done by first sorting the result based on internal id and then using while loop and use concat method to get all results by internalid number as a filter inside the while loop. The sample code is given below: var filters = new Array(); filters[1] = new nlobjSearchFilter('mainline',null,'is','T'); var columns = new Array(); columns[0] = new nlobjSearchColumn('internalid').setSort();  //sort the result based on internalid var results = nlapiSearchRecord('transaction',null,filters,columns);  //search record var completeResultSet = results;  //copy the result while(results.length == 1000){  //if there are more than 1000 records      var lastId = results[999].getValue('internalid');  //note the last record retrieved      filters[2] = new nlobjSearchFilter('internalidnumber',null,'greaterthan',lastId);  //cre

Understand Core Technology behind SuiteScript 2.0

As a netsuite solution provider we want to share, The core of  SuiteScript 2.0 came from the RequireJs and CommonJs background. RequireJS is a JavaScript file and module loader. It is optimized for in-browser use, but it can be used in other JavaScript environment. Using a modular script loader like RequireJS will improve the speed and quality of your code. Commonjs  defines a module format. Unfortunately, it was defined without giving browsers equal footing to other JavaScript environments. Because of that, there are CommonJS specification proposals for Transport formats and an asynchronous require. In NetSuite Customization and netsuite implementation    RequireJS tries to keep with the spirit of CommonJS, with using string names to refer to dependencies, and to avoid modules defining global objects, but still allow coding a module format that works well natively in the browser. RequireJS implements the Asynchronous Module Definition (formerly Transport/C) proposal. D

USING CASE (IF AND ELSE) IN NETSUITE SAVED SEARCH- NETSUITE ACADEMY

While creating a saved search in Netsuite, you want encounter a situation where you want have to display a value depending on some conditions. Such scenarios can be implemented by using sql CASE syntax in the formula field. For eg, in a transaction search, if you want to display a value depending on the transaction type, then you can add a formula text field in coulmn and use CASE as given below: CASE WHEN {type}='Invoice' THEN '0' WHEN {type}='Journal' THEN {status}  ELSE '' END The above field will display 0 when type is Invoice. It will display status of the transaction when type is Journal and for other transaction type, it will be blank.
