However, it's important to note that NetSuite does not natively support approval routing for all transaction types. Here are the steps you can follow: 1. Create custom fields for "Approval Status" and "Next Approver" for the custom transaction record. These fields will be used to track the approval process. 2. Create a custom workflow that triggers on the creation or editing of the custom transaction record. This workflow should check the "Approval Status" field and perform actions based on its value. 3. In the workflow, you can add actions to send notifications to the "Next Approver" when the "Approval Status" is set to "Pending Approval". 4. You can also add actions to prevent the transaction from posting if the "Approval Status" is not "Approved". This can be done by setting the "Pending Approval" status to non-posting. 5. Finally, you can add actions to change the "Approval Status" to "Approved" when the "Next Approver" approves the transaction. Please note that this is a high-level overview and the actual implementation may vary based on your specific requirements and NetSuite setup. Also, keep in mind that a transaction will post as soon as it is saved, so you need to ensure that the transaction is not saved until it is approved. Remember, custom workflows can be complex and require careful planning and testing to ensure they work as expected.
