****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ****** Before performing a refresh from production to the sandbox environment, you should create or run the following searches and reports to ensure that any customizations or changes in the sandbox are identified and reviewed: 1. System Notes Saved Search: This search will help you track most of the activities that have occurred in the sandbox environment. It can be used to identify changes made to records, including customizations. 2. Customization Record Search: This search will help you identify all the customizations that have been made in the sandbox environment. It includes changes to forms, fields, records, workflows, scripts, etc. 3. SuiteCloud Development Framework (SDF): Use SDF to export all customizations from the sandbox environment. This will provide a backup of your customizations that can be used for comparison after the refresh. 4. Source Control System: Store the current sandbox customizations into a source control system (e.g. Git). After the refresh, get the refreshed customizations, and compare them with the previous revision. 5. Third-Party Tools: Tools like Salto can be used to compare all objects in a NetSuite sandbox environment both before and after it has been refreshed. Remember, any customizations or changes that are not in production at the time of the refresh will be lost in the sandbox environment. Therefore, it's crucial to document and confirm that you can restore any customizations before the refresh. Also, if you have any integrations, ensure you don't have sandbox data going into a production account.
