We can have Quick add portlet in Dashboard and also available as Popup (found as an ADD button in the List view of records). There is a User preference SHOW QUICK ADD ROW ON LISTS under Home>Set Preferences>General. Can turn on this preference to use quick add-on direct editable lists. You can turn this preference off on individual lists. Quick add allows you to create new records from lists, directly from the dashboard, and only add basic information.
To add/get the fields in Quick Add, we can enable them in their custom form. In the custom record rather than setting ALLOW QUICK ADD in the record type make sure to enable them in each custom field setting and for each in the preferred custom form.
- Client Script will not work on Quick add. This is Netsuite Standard bahavior. So as a work around we can use User Event Before Submit/After Submit function will be executed. Potentially Before Submit function is Reliable.
- In Quick Add popoup Custom fields in custom record sourced from custom list will not show as dropdrown list as with standard lists like item, employee etc. Filed in Enhancement #223313
