To find if any changes has been made to a suitelet form

Scenario: I have created a suitelet form to edit a particular record. If there are no changes in the form, I have to block the submission and display a warning. Solution: Link a client script file to the necessary suitelet page and in the client script page give the below code. define([‘N/log’, ‘N/ui/dialog’], function (log,… Continue reading To find if any changes has been made to a suitelet form

Difference between scriptContext.response.writePage and scriptContext.response.write

In suitescript, both scriptContext.response.writePage and scriptContext.response.write are methods used to handle response to a client. scriptContext.response.writePage: It is used to render and send a whole page or form. Ideally used for suitelets with interactive UI elements. Example: Used to create a custom form with input fields and buttons that users can interact with. scriptContext.response.write: sends… Continue reading Difference between scriptContext.response.writePage and scriptContext.response.write

https.post.promise method

We cannot use server-side script methods to do operations in client script because it is a client-side script. Hence if we have to get some value from server-side methods, we can use the https.post.promise method. https.post.promise allows client-side scripts to asynchronously send data to and receive responses from server-side scripts (like Suitelets). Hence we can… Continue reading https.post.promise method

Passing parameters from a client script to external suitelet form

If we have to pass parameters from a client script to an external suitelet form, we cannot create an external URL to pass parameters of the suitelet script using urlResolveScript in the client script. Since the client script is attached to the suitelet script, we can get the URL of the suitelet using the window.location… Continue reading Passing parameters from a client script to external suitelet form

Suitelet Error: Invalid Page Parameter

Scenario: When a suitelet script calls another suitelet script or a client script with the link from url.resolveScript() method, we face an issue ‘Notice: Invalid Page Parameter’. Solution: This error occurs because we did not give the option ‘returnExternalUrl: true’ in the url.resolveScript()method. Without the ‘returnExternalUrl: true’ option, the method generates the internal URL of… Continue reading Suitelet Error: Invalid Page Parameter

User Acceptance Testing (UAT) plays a crucial role in software development, ensuring the system meets user requirements before deployment. Here’s how UAT differs between Agile and Waterfall methodologies: Waterfall Methodology: Sequential Approach: UAT occurs late in the development cycle, after all phases (requirements, design, development) are completed. Comprehensive and Formal: Testing is rigorous, with predefined… Continue reading User Acceptance Testing (UAT) in: Agile vs. Waterfall Method
