02/17/2020, 8:32 PMI am working on printing a transaction form using a custom Advanced PDF. I have applied the PDF to the transaction form. In my suitelet, I am using the following:
Copy code
var renderer = render.create();
renderer.addRecord('record', record.load({
type: record_type,
id: invoiceId.id
}));
var invoicePDF = renderer.renderAsPdf();u

02/17/2020, 9:05 PM@JohnnyC, I am going to have to add a custom data source, I am not positive render.transaction will support.

02/17/2020, 9:06 PMNo it won't then what @Sandii said is correct you have to provide the renderer with the template string
