To automate the build process, you can use a Suitelet. A Suitelet is a server-side script that can be invoked via a URL. Once the approval logic is implemented, the Suitelet can be used to automatically create a work order upon approval. As for adding an approval button to a workflow, NetSuite provides a workflow SuiteScript module that can be used to simulate the click of a button with a script. You can deploy a Suitelet or RESTlet with code to click the button. This Suitelet or RESTlet can then be initiated with an API call. For more complex approval processes, you might consider using an approval grid which can set based on various fields. When the approval grid name matches with the transaction concatenation grid name, you can use a script to use that table approvers for approval. Alternatively, you can create a "parent workflow" that initiates the correct sub-workflow based on your criteria. This allows you to make updates to independent "sub workflows" which are easier to visualize and comprehend because they represent just one branch of the overall workflow. Please note that while these methods can automate the process, they may require some initial setup and may be more difficult for mass changes. However, they can make more frequent "little" changes and troubleshooting easier.
