is the variables in getInputData available in map and reduce functions

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

Based on the conversations provided, it appears that variables defined in the

getInputData

stage of a Map/Reduce script in NetSuite are not directly available in the

map

and

reduce

stages. This is because each stage of a Map/Reduce script operates in its own context, and data is not automatically passed between them. However, there are ways to make data available across stages. One common method is to pass the data as part of the output of the

getInputData

stage, which then becomes the input for the

map

stage. This data can then be passed along to the

reduce

stage as part of the

map

stage's output. For example, if you have a variable

myVar

in the

getInputData

stage that you want to use in the

map

and

reduce

stages, you could include

myVar

in the output of the

getInputData

stage like so:

javascript
function getInputData() {
    var myVar = "some value";
    // other code...
    return { "myVar": myVar, "otherData": otherData };
}

Then, in the

map

stage, you can access

myVar

from the input context:

javascript
function map(context) {
    var inputData = JSON.parse(context.value);
    var myVar = inputData.myVar;
    // other code...
}

And similarly in the

reduce

stage:

javascript
function reduce(context) {
    var myVar = context.values[0].myVar;
    // other code...
}

Remember, this is just one way to pass data between stages in a Map/Reduce script. Depending on your specific needs, there may be other methods that are more appropriate. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
