how can i replicate the planning workbench so it is easier to search, filter etc

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To replicate the planning workbench with enhanced search and filter capabilities, you can create a custom Suitelet in NetSuite. Suitelets are server-side scripts that operate in a request-response model and are extremely flexible. They can be used to create custom UI pages, among other things. Here's a high-level approach: 1. Create a Suitelet: Start by creating a Suitelet that will serve as your custom planning workbench. You can use the SuiteScript API to create a form with fields that correspond to the data you want to display and filter. 2. Add Fields: Use the

form.addField

method to add fields to your Suitelet. These fields can be used to filter the data displayed in your custom planning workbench. 3. Add a Sublist: Use the

form.addSubList

method to add a sublist to your Suitelet. This sublist will display the data from your planning workbench. You can add columns to the sublist using the

sublist.addField

method. 4. Populate the Sublist: You'll need to write a function that retrieves the data you want to display and populates the sublist with it. You can use the

search

module to create a saved search that retrieves the data, and then iterate over the results to add them to the sublist. 5. Add a Filter Button: Add a button to your Suitelet using the

form.addButton

method. This button will be used to apply the filters. You'll need to write a function that retrieves the values of the filter fields, modifies the saved search to apply the filters, and then repopulates the sublist with the filtered results. 6. Add Checkbox for Each Row: You can add a checkbox for each row in the sublist using the

sublist.addField

method. This will allow users to select specific rows for further actions, such as exporting to Excel. Remember, this is a high-level approach and you'll need to adapt it to your specific needs. You'll also need to have a good understanding of SuiteScript to implement it. Here's a sample code snippet to get you started:

javascript
var form = serverWidget.createForm({
    title: 'Custom Planning Workbench'
});

var filterField = form.addField({
    id: 'custpage_filter',
    type: serverWidget.FieldType.TEXT,
    label: 'Filter'
});

var sublist = form.addSublist({
    id: 'custpage_sublist',
    type: serverWidget.SublistType.LIST,
    label: 'Workbench Data'
});

sublist.addField({
    id: 'custpage_checkbox',
    type: serverWidget.FieldType.CHECKBOX,
    label: 'Select'
});

// Add more fields to the sublist as needed...

form.addButton({
    id: 'custpage_filter_button',
    label: 'Apply Filter',
    functionName: 'applyFilter'
});

// You'll need to write the 'applyFilter' function to apply the filter and repopulate the sublist...
