PROPOSAL FOR AUTOGENERATED DANGEROUSGOODS FORM IN NETSUITE

Proposal Summary 

This proposal is to automatically generate a ‘Dangerous Goods form’ from the item fulfilment record in order to reduce human error and avoid violating ADR Regulations/Laws. 

Requirement  
 

Blueleaf needs to create a print template ‘Dangerous Goods form’ in the item fulfilment that needs to be populated automatically. 

 
The form needs to be generated when an item line field ITEM DANGEROUS GOODS PREFERENCES (custcol_proppershippingname) has the “Limited Quantity” or “Dangerous Goods” ticked. The Item Fulfilment should have the item fulfilment status ‘Shipped’, ideally the form should be generated together with the delivery note.

There are some fields which will be required to be auto populated, these have been highlighted in yellow on the template. On the table below the fields which need to be auto populated have been mapped to the required NetSuite fields. 

Template field name NetSuite field name NetSuite field ID Notes 
    1 Shipper/ Consignor/ Sender LOCATION ADDRESS   The field is located on the Sales Order form under the Shipping tab custbody_locationaddress The shipper is Blueleaf – this needs to be the address of the location the Sales Order is being sent from 
    3 Page No of     Should there be more than one page on an IF, this field should populate according to where the item is located on the IF. For example, page 2  
4 Shipper’s reference REF. NO. tranid This needs to be the Item Fulfilment number

        14 Shipping Marks UN NUMBER (UN prefix) PROPER SHIPPING NAME TRANSPORT HAZARD CLASS FLASH POINT   The UN number field will only generate a number. The letters UN need to be set on the form ready for the number to sit next to custitem_unnumber 
 custitem_propershippingname 
 custitem_transportharardclass 
 custitem_flash_point 
All these fields are found under the preference tab on an item record. Two examples of how the layout should be displayed, have been shown on the template (page 2) 
  19 Total gross ITEM WEIGHT x QUANTITY weight  quantity   The total gross field needs to be the item weight of the item times the quantity of that item on the Sales Order 

Our Solution 

We will be creating a button on the item fulfilment page when an item line field ITEM DANGEROUS GOODS PREFERENCES (custcol_proppershippingname) has the “Limited Quantity” or “Dangerous Goods” and the item fulfilment status is ‘Shipped’.  

On the button click we can navigate to the print page that shows all the details as in the below table:
