Hi all

This is more of a rant, but why oh why when I put the source of a field to workorder, does it show me ALL transactions, regardless of type?

The same with the assemblyitem type…it shows me ALL Items, including service items, non inventory items and tax codes.

I have checked SSv2.0 and that also has the same limitation.

Now, I know that I can create a field, run a search that will get the values, populate them using the addSelectOption…but omfg what a time consuming and programmatically expensive way of doing such a simple thing!

When I create a Custom Field of type List/Record, I can set field filters on there…Why can I not do this via SuiteScript on the nlobjForm!?

Does anyone know of a better way than the tedious Search>Add Each Option way?

Thanks

Pete.

I think workorder shows all transactions because only transaction (id -30) is included in the list/record type as source — we cannot specify the type.

This is actually logged in enhancement # 322697: SS | Add filtering for list/record fields added via nlobjForm.addField()

For the last part, yeah, that’s the only way I think lof unless you create a custom record for workorders, and use the custom record as source.

Thanks Mark, I was hoping it wasn’t the case as it’s been this way for years. I was hoping someone else had come up with a better way since then!
