AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
To make a standard NetSuite field searchable in Global Search, similar to the Memo field, you would need to create a custom field and set the global search preference to true. Here are the steps: 1. Navigate to the custom field creation page (Customization > Lists, Records, & Fields > Item Fields > New). 2. Define the label and ID for your custom field. 3. Set the type of the field to match the standard field you want to make searchable. 4. In the 'Validation & Defaulting' subtab, check the 'Global Search' checkbox. This will make the field available in the global search. 5. Save the custom field. After creating the custom field, you need to copy the value from the standard field to the custom field. This can be done using a workflow that triggers on before record submit. Please note that this solution is applicable for fields where you have control over the data entry. For system-generated fields or fields that are updated by NetSuite internally, this solution may not work as expected. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
