AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
Yes, you can create a script that automatically deletes all item receipts that show up on a custom saved search. However, it's important to note that this operation should be done with caution as it can lead to data loss if not handled properly. Here's a general approach to achieve this: 1. Create a SuiteScript that runs a saved search: You can use SuiteScript to run your custom saved search and get the results. The
N/search
module in SuiteScript 2.0 allows you to load and run saved searches. 2. Delete the records: Once you have the results from the saved search, you can loop through each result and delete the corresponding record using the
N/record
module's
delete
method. Here's a simplified example of how this might look:
Copy code
javascript
var search = require('N/search');
var record = require('N/record');

// Load the saved search
var mySearch = search.load({
    id: 'customsearch_my_search'
});

// Run the search
var searchResults = mySearch.run().getRange({
    start: 0,
    end: 100
});

// Loop through the search results and delete each record
for (var i = 0; i < searchResults.length; i++) {
    var recordId = searchResults[i].id;
    record.delete({
        type: record.Type.ITEM_RECEIPT,
        id: recordId
    });
}
Please replace
'customsearch_my_search'
with the ID of your saved search. Also, this script assumes that the saved search is returning item receipt records. If it's returning a different type of record, you'll need to adjust the
type
parameter in the
record.delete
method accordingly. Remember, this is a destructive operation and there's no way to recover deleted records. Always test your script in a sandbox account before running it in production. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
