Add a Timestamp and URL to Exported PDF Reports

In many companies undergoing audits, administrators may be tasked with ensuring that reports meet audit and compliance standards, such as documenting when they were generated. Adding a timestamp and the account number where the report was generated to exported PDF reports is an effective way to achieve this. The timestamp indicates when the report was run, while the account number provides a direct reference to the source, making it easier to verify and trace during audits. 

By default, when you click the PDF button on any report in NetSuite, these fields, the timestamp and URL, are not included:
