Is the "Status" of a Sales Order or a 'Line Item' set-able via `mass update`?

Either way - the closest you'll probably get to that is via a CSV import - and odds are you aren't going to get what you are asking for.

Status, as in the state that NetSuite puts at the top "Billed", "Awaiting Approval", etc.

Ah, dang.
The end goal it mark a swath of SO's as `Closed`, at least temporarily because the product is simply not available right now.

There's a closed checkbox on the lines - mark that true via CSV and the order will close

Oh? I didn't realize you could set the line item like that!

Have a saved search that grabs all the sales orders, with it's internal IDs and Line IDs

and then CSV import that into NS - with 3 fields mapped. Internal ID, Line ID, and the "Closed" checkbox marked true (hard code that in your import)

(do this on a small sample set first to make sure it works)

I am amused that this might actually be that simple. Because there are so very few of these things that seem that simple in NetSuite. :upside_down_face:

in general, statuses on transactions are just a representation of something to do with the lines.  The closed status on the sales order simply means lines are closed
