AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
To print a custom record with a specific template in SuiteScript, you can use the
n/render
module. This module provides methods to render templates into various formats, such as PDF. Here is a general approach: 1. Create an Advanced PDF template for your custom record. This template will define how your custom record will be printed. You can customize this template as per your needs. 2. Use the
n/render
module to render the template. You can use the
render.create
method to create a
TemplateRenderer
object. This object has methods like
renderAsPdf
and
renderPdfToResponse
which you can use to render the template as a PDF. 3. If you want to add custom data to your template, you can use the
addCustomDataSource
method of the
TemplateRenderer
object. This method allows you to add a custom data source to your template. Here is a sample code snippet:
Copy code
javascript
var render = require('N/render');

// Create a TemplateRenderer object
var renderer = render.create();

// Set the template ID
renderer.templateId = 'your_template_id';

// Add a custom data source
renderer.addCustomDataSource({
    alias: 'testobject',
    format: render.DataSource.OBJECT,
    data: your_desired_custom_data_object
});

// Render the template as a PDF
var pdf = renderer.renderAsPdf();
Please replace
'your_template_id'
and
your_desired_custom_data_object
with your actual template ID and custom data object. Remember, this is a general approach and might need to be adjusted based on your specific use case. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
