I need to include an anchor an advanced pdf template. The url in the field I'm sourcing from needs encoding it seems but I'm unable to click through the link after encoding. It seems to includ eteh work "href" and I don't know why. Can you suggest how to use a hyperlink field from a record to create a clickable link in a PDF

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To include a hyperlink in an advanced PDF template, you can use the following method: 1. First, you need to reference the field in your HTML code. You can do this by using the field name within curly brackets

{}

or in some cases, you might need to use it within

<NL>

tags. For example, if your field name is

custbodypg_link_so

, you can reference it like this:

{custbodypg_link_so}

or

<NLCUSTBODYPG_LINK_SO>

. 2. Then, you can use this reference in your

href

attribute of the

a

tag. Here is an example:

html
<a href="{custbodypg_link_so}">Securely View, Edit, & Track the status of this order</a>

or

html
<a href="<NLCUSTBODYPG_LINK_SO>">Securely View, Edit, & Track the status of this order</a>

3. If you want to make a custom field as a hyperlink to another page in NetSuite, you can use the following method:

html
<a href="#" onclick="window.open('https://[YOURACCOUNTNUMBER].app.netsuite.com/app/accounting/transactions/purchord.nl?id=' || {createdfrom.internalid} || '&whence=', 'popup', 'width=600, height=600, resizeable=yes, location=no'); return false;">Export to Excel</a>

Replace

[YOURACCOUNTNUMBER]

with your account number and

Export to Excel

with the text you want to be displayed. Please note that the field names and URLs used in the examples are placeholders and you should replace them with your actual field names and URLs. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
