Hello guys, I think I might be onto something.

Recently I needed to create a select field in a Suitelet whose source was all the saved searches in the system, most of the solutions that I found in the web suggest to create a saved search that returns all the saved search and then populate the field options. By searching a little bit deeper I stumbled upon this reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/Netsuite/comments/esb9hj/need_help_with_suitelet/

Which basically tells us to insert the value “-119” inside the “Source” option inside form.addField, example:

var field = form.addField({id : 'custpage_abc_text',type : serverWidget.FieldType.TEXT,label : 'Text',source: -119 });

I was quite happy to find that it works perfectly, but a question arose: where can I find all the internal IDs of Netsuite standard lists?

On the web, there weren’t questions of this kind, nor any information (maybe I didn’t search well enough). By searching “-119” on Ntetsuite’s help page, something really interesting appeared to me. You can find it by following this path inside of the help:

“SuiteCloud Platform -> SuiteCloud Development Framework -> SuiteCloud Development Framework XML Reference -> Lists For SDF Custom Object XML Definitions -> script_returnrecordtype”

Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to find a public link to this help page.

If you access it, this is an extract of the page content:

script_returnrecordtype

-127

-128

CONTINUES…

It contains -119, so I supposed that this is what the number I inserted in the script was referring to.

Unfortunately, there doesn’t seem to be a table that references those IDs to the related record.

Does any one of you know how to get this reference or shall I try every ID and create a table?

I think that mapping these values to the related records would really help the community by simplifying the scripting process, making it quicker to reference standard lists/records.

Thank you in advance, your responses are always very valuable. If we help each other we can reach a greater knowledge!
