N/task Module – Automating Background Processing

Function Highlight: task.create() with MapReduce or ScheduledScript

  • Use Case: When you need to process large datasets or perform intensive logic in the background.
  • Why Uncommon: Many developers overlook MapReduce and Scheduled Scripts for performance-heavy tasks and rely too much on client scripts or User Events.
  • Ideas to Cover:
  • How to offload bulk operations (e.g., bulk update of sales orders)
  • Setting up dependencies (e.g., MapReduce chaining)
  • Error handling and monitoring execution status
