Localization Record Context Field Management (LRCFM)

The Localization record context field management system enables you to hide the fields, sublists, sublist columns on a record opened based on the localization context.

The Localization Assistant SuiteApp supports the LRCFM feature. You or your developers can apply the filters of the localization record context to the workflows of different countries.

Implementation of LRCFM by Localization Assistant SuiteApp

A custom user event script is setup in the Localization Assistant SuiteApp. When a supported record is updated, the BeforeLoad user event script is triggered by the LRC Field Manager Plug-in type. For more information about the supported records, refer to Records Supporting LRCFM by Localization Assistant SuiteApp

The LRC Field Manager Plug-in hides the fields, sublists, sublist columns with internal Ids mentioned in the plug-in implementation.

The following image displays the flow of the plug-in implementation:

Advantages of Record Localization Context

The advantages of using the Localization Assistant SuiteApp for Record Localization Context are as follows:

• Partners and customers can use this feature in their country-specific feature implementation.

• You can avoid creating multiple user event scripts to hide fields based on their localization context for multiple SuiteApps.

• Prevent performance delays by avoiding multiple user event scripts and the time used for loading the records.

Creating LRCFM Plug-in Implementation

You must create a plug-in implementation for the LRC field manager plug-in type for each localization country.

The following is a sample script of Mexico Localization that you can use as a reference in creating your own script file:

          /**
* @NApiVersion 2.x
* @NScriptType plugintypeimpl
*/
define(['N/format','N/record'], function(format,record) {

  function addUIElementsForManagement(obj) {
          return {
                  country: 'MX',
                  fields: [{
                              id:'custbody_mx_trans_body_fld',                                
                              type: format.Type.TEXT,//or "checkbox"
                              clearingValue: 'defaultstring',
                              showOnlyIn:[
                                record.Type.PURCHASE_ORDER                               
                              ],
                              isMandatory:false
                            },
                            { 
                              id:'custentity_mx_entity_fld',
                              type: format.Type.TEXT,
                              clearingValue: 'defaultString',
                              showOnlyIn:[
                                 record.Type.CUSTOMER,
                                 record.Type.EMPLOYEE
                              ],
                              isMandatory:true
                            },
                            {
                              id:'custitem_lrc_test_mx_item_field'
                            }

                         ]
                  sublists: ['recmachcustrecord_lrc_test_link_mx_entity', 'recmachcustrecord_lrc_test_link_mx_item'],
                  sublistColumns: [{
                          id:'recmachcustrecord_lrc_test_link_mx_entity',
                          columnIds:['custrecord_lrc_test_sub_col_mx']
                  }],
        }
  }
  return {
          addUIElementsForManagement: addUIElementsForManagement
  }
})
