AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
In SuiteScript, you can set the variable for filters in
search.create
by using the
filters
or
filterExpression
property of the search object. Here are two ways to do it: 1. Using
filters
property:
Copy code
javascript
var dynamicFilter = null;
if (condition) {
    dynamicFilter = search.createFilter({});
} else {
    dynamicFilter = search.createFilter({});
}

var filters = searchObj.filters;
filters.push(dynamicFilter);
searchObj.filters = filters;
2. Using
filterExpression
property:
Copy code
javascript
if (dataFilters.b_dateflag == 'Expiry') {
    filters.push("AND");
    filters.push(["expirationdate", "onorbefore", "today"]);
} else if (dataFilters.b_dateflag == 'Do not ship after') {
    filters.push("AND");
    filters.push(["custitemnumber1", "onorbefore", "today"]);
}

inventorynumberSearchObj.filterExpression = filters;
In both cases, you can dynamically add filters to the search object based on certain conditions. The
createFilter
method is used to create a new filter, and the
filterExpression
property is used to set the filter expression of the search object. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
