@sam uploaded a file: Do all SS2.0 scripts now need this? Even if I dont need to configure require (base dir, etc.)?

It seems that both

nlapiGetUser()

and

nlapiGetContext().getUser()

return the ID of the customer that is logged in. Does anyone know how to get the ID of the user logged in if they are logged in as a contact of that customer?

hey guys, i have a custom record where i store a chunk of json as one of the fields. i want to then do a search in the record to see if an entry exists with that json chunk. i tried

filters.push(["custrecord_test_json", "is", entries[x].payload]);

but it fails to run the search. if i remove that filter and use others it works fine. tried doing

String(entries[x].payload)

too in case netsuite was reading it as an object/array but still fails. not even an error message, just err = null

In SuiteScript, how do you handle different role id's across sandbox and production?

I have an email that is sent out based on the role, and when moved to production, that role id is different

We refresh our sandbox every couple of months so everything matches up

Be sure to save all of your scripts offline somewhere. And I usually put my workflows into production, just not release them, so when I refresh sandbox I can just copy them back over.

do you have to redeploy everything?

that sounds terribly tedious.

When I do a sandbox refresh, yes, I have to redeploy the scripts that I did not have in production. If they were in production and have deployements, those come back automatically

what about custom forms and fields that are in development?

Those come over to sandbox automatically

oh, y'all do all of that stuff in prod?

Oh sorry, I thought you said in production

If they are only in sandbox, and not in production, it won't sync over and will be erased

Yeah we do everything in sandbox first, so a prod to sandbox refresh isn't possible for us sadly

we have a UAT sandbox that is refreshed every month

I haven't messed around with it, but you may be able to create a bundle from your scripts, workflows, custom forms, and custom fields and just reload the bundle after a refresh

We usually only have a couple of projects in sandbox at any given time, so it's not too frustrating or time-consuming after a refresh

That may be something to look into

Ah. We're pre go live so there are 20 diff projects at any given time

Yeah, jeez, that would be terrible to have to reload manually 😢

lol yup. NetSuite needs to have a way to do this automatically. Refresh the data, but keep the deployments,scrits, etc

I've been getting a TypeError _.truncate is not a function when trying to use lodash in my scripts today, has anything changed that would have caused this? Moment is still working weirdly enough

@jmacdonald I think it may have something to do with the fact that modules now require a

config.json

file (as of 2017.2) and there is also an additional

JSDoc

tag that you need to add to the script.

* @NAmdConfig  ./config.json

I thought that too but it didn't seem to fix it, instead I downloaded the full version of lodash (not minified) and it now seems to be working? not sure what was wrong with it before

hmm interesting. Maybe that is why I can't get

x2js

to work right now

could be, might be worth a try looking for a non-minified version and seeing if it works.

worth a shot
