Morning everyone - is there a way of mass updating bills to different departments?
s
Did you try mass update? might work not sure if classification is exposed in Mass update
i
Has to be via CSV...
I am now trying to mass update Item Fulfillment, but can see any way to do that
The CSV import does not have that category nor the mass update
d
You could use a suitescript for that
i
I'm comfortable with coding but havent given a stab at suitescript
How long do you think I'd take to perform it?
d
That depends on what kinf o refinements you want
You coud create a simple rest service that changes the department on a specified (or a list) of bills
Or you could write a wizard page with a map/reduce scrit wich would be more complicated
i
Was looking for something simple right now, like moving item fulfillments from COGS to expenses
d
If it is a one time only I would just create a script that receives a list of IDs, loads and updates the record
And invoke the service using postman so it wouldn't impact the Netsuite governance
i
Just as a time reference, how long would it take for you to do it?
s
CSV would be lot easier though
to be honest
d
A lot easier
i
But CSV doesnt handle item fulfillment
d
I've never tried a CSV import with bills though
i
I got my way around bills via CSV, pretty straightfwd, even though wanted to use the mass update
But now I'm trying to move item fulfillments around and cant see a way to do it
I'll probably move the balance around using a journal, but wanted to make it cleaner
d
As @Suitestallion said CSV would be alot easier, as a developper I always try to solve things with scripts
Probably would take a day or two to get a script like that working
i
Got it
That sounds like a lot of fun!
d
Yeah, hope you enjoy it
