Creating a Custom Plug-in in an XML Definition

The following process describes creating a custom plug-in for use in SuiteCloud Development Framework (SDF):

1. Create a custom plug-in type. In SDF, that is represented by a plugintype object.

   See Creating a Custom Plug-in Type in an XML Definition.

2. Create alternate custom plug-in implementations for that type. In SDF, those are represented by pluginimplementation objects.

   See Creating a Custom Plug-in Implementation in an XML Definition.

3. Instantiate the custom plug-in in a SuiteScript script.

   See Instantiating a Custom Plug-in Script in SuiteScript 2.x.

4. Validate the SDF custom objects and then deploy them to a NetSuite account.

   See Validating a Custom Plug-in in an XML Definition and Deployment Logs for SuiteCloud Projects.

5. Set the active implementation in a NetSuite account.

   See Managing Custom Plug-in Implementations.

Tip:

To bundle the custom plug-in, see Bundling a Custom Plug-in.
