How to atomatically export or email Purchase Order PDF file.

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To automatically export or email a Purchase Order PDF file in NetSuite, you can use a combination of SuiteScript and workflows. Here's a general approach: 1. Create a Purchase Order PDF: You can create a PDF file from a Purchase Order record using the

N/render

module in SuiteScript 2.0. This module provides methods to render transaction records into printable forms such as PDFs. 2. Email the PDF: Once the PDF is created, you can use the

N/email

module in SuiteScript 2.0 to send the PDF as an attachment in an email. 3. Automate the Process: To automate this process, you can create a workflow that triggers when a Purchase Order is saved. In the workflow, you can add an action to execute a SuiteScript. This SuiteScript would contain the code to create the PDF and send the email. Here's a simplified example of how you might use the

N/render

and

N/email

modules in SuiteScript 2.0:

javascript
var render = require('N/render');
var email = require('N/email');
var record = require('N/record');

// Load a Purchase Order record
var poRecord = record.load({
    type: record.Type.PURCHASE_ORDER,
    id: '123'
});

// Render the record as a PDF
var poPdf = render.transaction({
    entityId: poRecord.id,
    printMode: render.PrintMode.PDF,
});

// Send the PDF in an email
email.send({
    author: 123,
    recipients: '<mailto:email@example.com|email@example.com>',
    subject: 'Purchase Order PDF',
    body: 'Please find attached the Purchase Order PDF.',
    attachments: [poPdf]
});

Remember to replace

'123'

and

'<mailto:email@example.com|email@example.com>'

with the actual ID of the Purchase Order and the recipient's email address, respectively. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
