how to convert date/time field to: hhmmssnnyyyymmdd

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To convert a date/time field to the format 'hhmmssnnyyyymmdd' in NetSuite, you can use the

format

module in SuiteScript. The

format

module provides methods to convert a JavaScript Date object to a string, and vice versa, using NetSuite's date and time formats. Here is a sample code snippet that demonstrates how to use the

format

module to convert a date/time field:

javascript
var format = require('N/format');

var myDate = new Date();

var formattedDate = format.format({
    value: myDate,
    type: format.Type.DATETIMETZ,
    timezone: format.Timezone.AMERICA_NEWYORK
});

var finalFormat = formattedDate.replace(/:/g, '').replace(/-/g, '').replace(/ /g, '').replace(/,/g, '');

In this example,

myDate

is the date/time field you want to convert. The

format.format

method is used to convert the JavaScript Date object to a string using the specified date and time format. The

replace

method is then used to remove the colons, hyphens, spaces, and commas from the formatted string to achieve the desired format 'hhmmssnnyyyymmdd'. Please note that this code snippet assumes that the date/time field is in the 'America/New_York' timezone. You may need to adjust the

timezone

parameter to match the timezone of your date/time field. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
