Test the Plug-in Implementation

To test a Custom GL Lines plug-in implementation, perform the following tasks:

• Create a custom role for the plug-in implementation. The Execute As Role field determines the role which the plug-in implementation script runs as, and it needs the SuiteScript permission.

  For more information about the Execute As Role field, see Adding the Plug-in Implementation. For more information about custom roles in NetSuite, see Customizing or Creating NetSuite Roles.

• Configure the transaction types, subsidiaries, and accounting books for the plug-in implementation, based on your accounting features. See Configuring the Custom GL Lines Plug-in Implementation.

• Enable the plug-in implementation at Customization > Plug-ins > Manage Plug-ins. See Enabling the Custom GL Lines Plug-in Implementation.

• Create transactions that impact the general ledger and test the script and plug-in behavior.

• Examine the GL impact of the transactions and make sure the plug-in implementation works as expected.

  Important:

  Plug-in implementations modify or supplement NetSuite business logic, changing the manner in which standard business processes run. Make sure that the GL impacts on the transaction types, subsidiaries, and accounting books match the customization in the plug-in implementation script file and configuration.

  You should test your plug-in implementation on every NetSuite version and release your customers use.

If you use the Custom GL Lines Plug-in with Custom Segments, the plug-in may fail for any of the following reasons:

• Custom segment does not exist.

• Custom segment is inactive.

• The role set up to run the plug-in doesn't have permission to set values on the custom segment.

• The custom segment doesn't impact GL.

• The Custom Segment feature isn't enabled.
