AccountingBook

Type	Interface input object
Description	Represents the accounting book passed to a Custom GL Lines plug-in implementation when you save a transaction. Use the methods available to the book object to determine if the book is a primary or secondary book or get the internal NetSuite ID of the accounting book. If you use the Multi-Book Accounting feature, the AccountingBook object represents a different accounting book each time the plug-in implementation executes. For more information, see Custom GL Lines Plug-in Process Flow.

getId()

Function Declaration	int getId()
Type	Object method
Description	Returns the internal NetSuite ID for the accounting book to be passed to a Custom GL Lines plug-in implementation. You can use this ID, for example, to load the accounting book record with the nlapiLoadRecord(type, id, initializeValues) SuiteScript API. You can use this ID, for example, to define plug-in implementation functionality based on the accounting book ID, to load the record for the book with nlapiLoadRecord(type, id, initializeValues), or to search for the record with nlapiSearchRecord(type, id, filters, columns). See SuiteScript 1.0 Documentation. The type for an accounting book record is accountingbook. Important: Limit the use of these APIs, where possible, to improve performance of the plug-in implementation. Also, searching for a record results in better performance than loading the record. You can view the list of internal NetSuite IDs for accounting books at Setup > Accounting > Accounting Books. You can also use helper functions in a utility file to avoid adding the internal NetSuite IDs into the plug-in implementation logic. See Utility Files for a Custom GL Lines Plug-In Implementation.
Returns	int
Input Parameters	None.
Parent object	AccountingBook

Example

             function customizeGlImpact(transactionRecord, standardLines, customLines, book)
   {
      ...
      var bookId = book.getId();
      if (!book.isPrimary())
      {
         var bookRec = nlapiLoadRecord('accountingbook',bookId);
         ...
      }
      ...
   } 

        

isPrimary()

Function Declaration	boolean isPrimary()
Type	Object method
Description	Returns true if the book object is the primary accounting book for the NetSuite account or returns false if the accounting book is a secondary accounting book.
Returns	boolean
Input Parameters	None.
Parent object	AccountingBook

Example

             function customizeGlImpact(transactionRecord, standardLines, customLines, book)
   {
      ...
      var bookId = book.getId();
      if (book.isPrimary())
      {
         var bookRec = nlapiLoadRecord('accountingbook',bookId);
         ...
      }
      ...
