Currently, Vendor Center does not have standard NetSuite permission that can be customized so that they can be allowed to upload file to File Cabinet. However, a Suitelet can be deployed on Vendor Center which will function as the file upload facility. Below are the steps to work around the current limitation:
1. Create Suitelet using the following code and Deploy it to vendor Center Role:
function uploader(request, response)
{
if (request.getMethod() == ‘GET’)
{
let form = nlapiCreateForm(‘Upload File’);
let fileField = form.addField(‘file’, ‘file’, ‘Select File’);
fileField.setMandatory(true)
form.addSubmitButton();
form.addResetButton();
response.writePage(form);
}
else
{
let file = request.getFile(“file”)
file.setFolder(166); //internalid of Folder
var id = nlapiSubmitFile(file);
}
let form = nlapiCreateForm(‘Upload File’);
let text1=form.addField(‘success’, ‘label’, ‘Upload Succesful!’);
response.writePage(form);
}
2. Deploy Suitelet as a custom Link on the Vendor Center Home Dashboard.
2.a. Setup>Customization>Center Categories> New
2.b. Center Type= Vendor Center
2.c. Section= Home
2.d. Category= Upload File
2.e. On Sublist link, Select the Suitelet deployment.
2.f. Label= Upload File
3. Login using Vendor Center Role and click the link “Upload File” from the Home Portlet.
