Creating Custom Fields with Values Derived from Summary Search Results
You can create a custom field that can display values derived from summary saved search results. Each summary search field displays a rollup value for a selected search results field. The value is dynamically calculated each time you open a form containing the summary search field. For example, you can display the total quantity of all line items on a transaction. The summary search field provides an alternative to using SuiteScript to calculate the values of a custom field.
Note the following
-
The rollup functionality is similar to that of custom sublists, except the search results display in a field rather than a sublist.
-
To help maintain responsive checkout forms, limit the number of summary search custom fields displayed during checkout.
