Hi all, My saved search right now looks for document Number “Equal to” 1900, but it will show result of 19000, 21900, etc.. it will not search of only specifically 1900. How can I fix this to only find for 1900 specifically
b
this doesnt sound right
internal id is not the same as document number
k
I’m trying to use Order # of a sales order to get the internal Id for a sales order
I tried document number equal to my order # but it shows result of sales order contain my order #
@battk What would be the proper way to get internal Id from an Order# for sales order?

in general its search the document number/id for your id
make sure to use the is filter
document number by itself works for newer accounts
k
I used Document Number / Id and “is” filter but still shows other results
b
but eventually fails for older accounts, document number/id isnt actually unique
what does your search look like

what do the results look like
k
message has been deleted
it shows any number that contains 1926
b
the filter that you are working actually does some conversion when its a number
mostly so that it works with the suffixes and prefixes
k
You are right, i made a sales order #319261 and it does not show
b
my guess is that your document numbers have actually have been set to allow override
and that its supposed to normally have a prefix
and netsuite is using that logic that allows searching for the number of the document number without that prefix
which doesnt quite work with your document numbers since they dont have prefixes
k
Interesting. Does that mean I need A1920 and B21920
?
b
you can try it out, but if these are being generated outside of netsuite, its best to have a custom field to put the id in
and use that instead
k
Ah, would memo work? @battk
b
maybe, but i wouldnt reuse a native field for this
