how to create a saved search in suitescript2.0 that returns the subsidiary id given the subsidiary name

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To create a saved search in SuiteScript 2.0 that returns the subsidiary id given the subsidiary name, you can use the

N/search

module. Here is a sample code snippet that demonstrates how to do this:

javascript
/**
 * @NApiVersion 2.x
 * @NScriptType Suitelet
 */
define(['N/search'], function(search) {
    function onRequest(context) {
        var subsidiaryName = 'Your Subsidiary Name'; // replace with your subsidiary name

        var subsidiarySearch = search.create({
            type: search.Type.SUBSIDIARY,
            filters: [
                ['name', 'is', subsidiaryName]
            ],
            columns: ['internalid']
        });

        var subsidiarySearchResult = subsidiarySearch.run().getRange({
            start: 0,
            end: 1
        });

        if (subsidiarySearchResult.length > 0) {
            var subsidiaryId = subsidiarySearchResult[0].getValue({
                name: 'internalid'
            });

            context.response.write('Subsidiary ID: ' + subsidiaryId);
        } else {
            context.response.write('No subsidiary found with the name: ' + subsidiaryName);
        }
    }

    return {
        onRequest: onRequest
    };
});

This script creates a saved search that searches for subsidiaries with the specified name. It then retrieves the internal id (which is the subsidiary id) of the first matching subsidiary. If no matching subsidiary is found, it writes a message indicating that no subsidiary was found with the specified name. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
