Once the saved search is set up, you can then use the SuiteTalk API to fetch the saved search results. Here is a high-level overview of the steps: 1. In NetSuite, create a saved search that includes the necessary fields (Date, Account, Debit, Credit, YTD Debit, YTD Credit) and filters for the desired accounting period. 2. Use the SuiteTalk API to fetch the saved search results. The

operation in the SuiteTalk API allows you to fetch saved search results. Please note that the balances fetched via the API might not match with the UI due to various factors like timing of the API call, any ongoing transactions, etc. Always double-check the data and ensure it's consistent with your requirements. Remember, this method requires you to have access to the NetSuite UI to create the saved search. If you need to fetch the data via API without doing any modifications in the UI, you might need to use the

SOAP endpoint, but the balances might not match with the UI.
