Hello, is there a way you can add user input in workflow? For example, I want to add a button on transaction, and upon clicking it, NetSuite will prompt me to leave some sort of message for that specific transaction despite not having an editing permission for that transaction

Does this info absolutely need to be on the record itself or can you use a custom record as an extension joined via a field on the transaction?

Because you can join to custom records in searches

It might preclude you from kicking off workflows and scripts on the parent record (the transaction) if you go that route

But if you can be creative, the custom record route for limited access can work. Also. You could use workflow on the parent record if you can be flexible in timing and use that as a search criteria

What about creating a custom text field on the record and giving permissions to that field.

In order to do that they have to have edit rights on the record
