Scenario
Workflow Action Go To Page redirects to the Saved Search definition instead of Saved Search Results. Go To Page action is used to redirect Workflow users to a specified page in NetSuite, pages being list views of records or reports.
Solution
The following Workflow sample adds a Button on the Item Fulfillment Record which upon click redirects the user to the List of Sales Orders awaiting fulfillment.
1. Create a Saved Search to list all the Sales Orders with status Pending Fulfillment
2. Navigate to Reports > Saved Searches > All Saved Searches > New
3. Give it a Name: Sales_Orders_Pending_Fulfillment
- Public: checked
- Criteria: Status = is Order:Pending fulfillment, Main Line = is true
- Select in the Results the columns you would like to list
4. Save
5. Define the Workflow : Navigate to Customization > Workflow > Workflows > New
6. Name = Go to page on button click
- Record Type = Transaction
- Sub Types = Order
- Release Status = Released
- On Update = True
- Trigger Type = Before Record Load
7. Save
8. Click New State
- Set Name = Add Button
9. Save
10. Add a New Action
- Select Add Button
- Trigger On = Before Record Load
- Label = See Pending Fulfillment Orders
11. Save
12. Click New State
- Set Name = Saved Search Results
13. Save
14. Add a New Action
- Select Go To Page
- Trigger On = Entry
- Page = Sales_Orders_Pending_Fulfillment Results
15. Save
16. Add a Transition from State Add Button to State Saved Search Results
- Button = See Pending Fulfillment Orders
17. Save
To test this open any of the existing Item Fulfillment and click on the See Pending Fulfillment Orders button displayed.
Note: When selecting the Page in the Go To Page action make sure that the Saved Search Results is selected and not simply the Saved Search as this will lead to redirecting the page to Saved Search definition instead of results.
