generate an XBRL file from Netsuite

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To generate an XBRL file from NetSuite, you would need to use SuiteScript to create the file. Unfortunately, there is no built-in functionality in NetSuite to generate XBRL files directly. However, you can create an XML file using SuiteScript and then convert it to XBRL. Here's a general approach you can take: 1. Create an XML file using SuiteScript: You can use the

xml

module in SuiteScript to create an XML file. You can create elements, attributes, and text nodes, and append them to the XML document. 2. Convert the XML file to XBRL: XBRL is a specific type of XML, so once you have your XML file, you would need to convert it to XBRL. This would involve mapping the data in your XML file to the appropriate XBRL taxonomy. Unfortunately, this step would likely need to be done outside of NetSuite, as it requires knowledge of the specific XBRL taxonomy you are using. Here's a basic example of how you might create an XML file in SuiteScript:

javascript
var xmlDocument = xmlMod.XmlDoc();
var rootElement = xmlDocument.createElement('root');
xmlDocument.appendChild(rootElement);

var childElement = xmlDocument.createElement('child');
childElement.appendChild(xmlDocument.createTextNode('Hello, World!'));
rootElement.appendChild(childElement);

var xmlFile = file.create({
    name: 'example.xml',
    fileType: file.Type.XMLDOC,
    contents: xmlDocument.toString(),
    folder: folderId
});
xmlFile.save();

Please note that this is a very basic example and creating an XBRL file would be more complex, as it would involve creating a valid XBRL document according to the XBRL taxonomy you are using. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
