how to write Email Template and add vendor name

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To write an email template and add the vendor name in NetSuite, you can use the FreeMarker templating language. Here's a step-by-step guide: 1. Navigate to the email templates section in NetSuite (Documents > Templates > Email Templates). 2. Click on 'New Email Template'. 3. In the 'Name' field, enter a name for your template. 4. In the 'Record Type' field, select the type of record this template will be used for. 5. In the 'Subject' field, you can add the vendor name by using the FreeMarker syntax. For example, if you want to add the vendor name to the subject line, you can use the following syntax:

Subject: Invoice for ${record.entity}

. Here,

record.entity

refers to the vendor associated with the record. 6. In the 'Content' field, you can write the body of your email. You can also use FreeMarker syntax here to include dynamic data from the record. For example,

Dear ${record.entity},

would address the email to the vendor. If you want to make the recipient dynamic, you can use FreeMarker's conditional statements. For example, if the recipient is the vendor, use vendor.companyname else if contact use contact.firstname. Here's an example of how you can do this:

<#if contact.firstname?has_content>${contact.firstname}<#else>${vendor.companyname}</#if>

This will check if the contact's first name is available. If it is, it will use the contact's first name. If not, it will use the vendor's company name. Remember to replace

contact.firstname

and

vendor.companyname

with the actual field references in your NetSuite account. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
