create a saved search in suitescript 2.0 that returns the rate column from a tax item given the tax item id

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To create a saved search in SuiteScript 2.0 that returns the rate column from a tax item given the tax item id, you can use the

N/search

module. Here is a sample code snippet:

javascript
var search = require('N/search');

function getTaxRate(taxItemId) {
    var taxItemSearch = search.create({
        type: search.Type.TAX_ITEM,
        filters: [
            ['internalid', 'is', taxItemId]
        ],
        columns: ['rate']
    });

    var taxRate;
    taxItemSearch.run().each(function(result) {
        taxRate = result.getValue({name: 'rate'});
        return false; // stop processing after the first result
    });

    return taxRate;
}

This function

getTaxRate

takes a tax item id as an argument and returns the rate of the tax item. It creates a saved search on the

TAX_ITEM

record type, filters by the given tax item id, and retrieves the

rate

column. The

run().each()

function is used to process the results. Since we're only interested in one tax item (they are unique by id), we return

false

after the first result to stop processing. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
