Copy code
layout.addToViewContextDefinition('ProductDetails.Full.View', 'isAvailable', 'boolean', function (context) {
console.log("OPTIONS CONTEXT",context);
return false;
});s

02/02/2024, 3:26 PMWe are selling nametags to a church for their missionaries. We offer tags in several languages, and have a list of available languages. We are now going to offer service missionary tags, but the list of available languages is smaller. I want to know how to filter the list down, without having to make a new list and if possible without modifying the DOM.

02/02/2024, 3:45 PMWe do some backend logic with a 3rd party that makes the tags, so a different list with new internal IDs would cause a lot of issues. There are alot of aspects of our process I can explain if needed. But I want to know if its possible to filter the list of options without using Jquery later (Ive already figured out how to do that)

02/02/2024, 4:21 PMOK, that’s interesting. And this is an SC site or an SCA site?

02/02/2024, 4:24 PMOK, well the path is (in the latest version) /SC_23.2_Live/Commons/ProductViews/JavaScript/ProductViews.Option.View.ts — the getContext() function is what generates that array of objects
Steve Goldberg
02/02/2024, 4:24 PMI would think that the best to filter the values is at this point, if you can’t/won’t change them in NetSuite
Steve Goldberg
02/02/2024, 4:26 PMIf the list of languages is fixed then you could hardcode them into this view such that it checks whether the cartOptionId is custcol_byu_name_tag_language and if it is, runs a filter() on them to narrow down the list
Steve Goldberg
02/02/2024, 4:26 PMIdeally, I think it would be better to fetch the list of acceptable languages from the config file, so that it can be updated later if things change

Benjamin Cookson
02/02/2024, 4:28 PMOk, I will look into the config file. Thank you
s
Steve Goldberg
02/02/2024, 4:28 PMI mean, you would have to write a customisation to add a field to the config file
Steve Goldberg
02/02/2024, 4:28 PMSo that business users can enter their list of acceptable languages
Steve Goldberg
02/02/2024, 4:29 PMThen your code customisation fetches that list before filtering

Benjamin Cookson
02/02/2024, 4:29 PMWe already have a customization for some other aspects, the language filtering is new.
