For transfer orders - is there an alternative to 'print picking ticket' or another way to print a custom advanced transaction pdf form without using a picking ticket? context - trying to have the ability to print the transactions at each stage of the TO and currently know that using 'print picking ticket' only allows to print item level info before creating an item fulfilment, post that - the item lines come through as blank because the code is against the picking ticket? Any ideas?

You could create a custom button through a UE script to call a suitelet that prints the current record using whatever template you want

@G @Nathan L can't this be achieved via a WF instead?
if not, would love if you could share something as I have a similar requirement but for another transaction type?
I tried to go down the workflow route however got stuck as wasn't able to dynamically call this...

Perhaps. I haven't tried it with workflow. Being a netsuite developer i always default to suitescript, even if its not the best solution. "When you have a hammer, everything looks like a nail"

hmm yeah, the problem is on the transfer order, the linked forms are restricted to these 4 and we have an advanced pdf that is set to use the picking ticket which doesn't print the items once a fulfillment is created and the status changes to pending receipt hence looking for an alternate solution... hmm might need to be a custom button that links directly to the template..
assuming it will need to be multiple scripts.. a suitelet, client and maybe event as it's supposed to print on clicking of a button?
n
Yeah you got it. UE to create the button, client to call the suitelet, then suitelet to build the PDF
g
hmm, that's a lot for something like this lol
n
@G Yes, it needs a lot of work, but safe and easy to customize.

just FYI you can skip the client script and go directly from UE to Suitelet
