SuiteCloud Development Framework (SDF) offers robust support for localization context filtering in SuiteScript 2.0 user event and client scripts. Localization context refers to the country or countries associated with a specific record. By leveraging localization context filtering, developers can precisely control where their scripts execute, based on the localization context of records.
Setting Up Localization Context Filtering
Localization context filtering is configured through the “Localization Context” field on the “Context Filtering” subtab of the script deployment record. This setting dictates the records on which user event and client scripts will run, depending on the localization context of those records. For instance, if a script’s deployment record specifies the localization context as “France,” the script will exclusively execute on records with a localization context of “France” and will not run on records with other localization contexts.
Configuring Localization Context in Custom Objects
In SuiteCloud projects, localization context can be configured within usereventscript and clientscript custom objects by specifying locales in the localizationcontext field. For usereventscript objects, developers have the option to specify all locales using the alllocalizationcontexts field.
Global Application of Localization Context Filtering
One notable aspect of localization context filtering is its seamless integration across all target accounts where the SuiteCloud project is deployed. Whether deploying a SuiteCloud project or installing an SDF SuiteApp from the SuiteApp Marketplace, the configured context filtering will apply uniformly across accounts.
Localization context filtering in SuiteCloud Development Framework empowers developers to precisely control script execution based on the localization context of records. By leveraging this feature, developers can ensure that their scripts operate effectively within specific geographical contexts, enhancing the overall functionality and relevance of their SuiteScript 2.0 user event and client scripts.
