Adding an Alternate Implementation to NetSuite

Alternate implementations are stored in the New Plug-in Implementation record type, which is a child record to the Custom Plug-in Type record. Before performing the steps in this procedure, see Creating a Custom Plug-in Alternate Implementation

To create a New Plug-in Implementation record:

  1. Go to Customization > Plug-ins > Plug-in Implementations > New.

  2. Select the script file that contains your alternate implementation, and then click Create Plug-in Implementation.

  3. On the New Plug-In Implementation record, enter the following:

    • Name: Enter a user-friendly name for your implementation. This name appears on the Manage Plug-In Implementations page where administrators activate/deactivate the implementations. For more information, see Managing Custom Plug-in Implementations.

    • ID: Enter an internal ID for the implementation. If you do not enter an ID, NetSuite creates one for you when you click Save.

    • Status: Set this to either Testing or Release. Set it to Released when you're ready for the implementation to go live in production.

    • Log Level: Set to the logging level you want for the script.

    • Description: If you want, add a short description of what the alternate implementation includes.

    • Owner: This field defaults to the name of the user who's logged in.

    • Inactive: Specify whether you want the custom plug-in type to be active or inactive.

    • On the Scripts tab, enter the following:

      • Implementation (SuiteScript 1.0 scripts only): Select the script file that has your alternate implementation of the custom plug-in type.

      • Libraries (SuiteScript 1.0 scripts only): If you have a library file with utility functions for your alternate implementation, add it here.

    • On the Unhandled Errors tab, specify who to notify if script errors occur. By default, the Notify Script Owner box is checked.

  4. Click Save.

You can access all your implementations by going to Customization > Plug-ins > Manage Plug-ins.

Note:

You can use SuiteCloud Development Framework (SDF) to manage alternate custom plug-in implementations as part of file-based customization projects. For information about SDF, see SuiteCloud Development Framework.

You can use Copy to Account to copy an individual alternate custom plug-in implementation to another account. When you edit an alternate custom plug-in implementation, you'll see a Copy to Account option in the upper right corner. For information about Copy to Account, see Copy to Account.
