In this edition, we continue our exploration of NetSuite Searches by looking at a general NetSuite concept called the mainline search filter.
To coincide with this series of articles on Searching, I have also created a series of SuiteScript cookbooks focused on Searching. If you are tired of NetSuite’s unrealistic or broken examples, then these cookbooks are for you.

The mainline filter is critical to building useful Transaction Searches in NetSuite; if you’re looking to accelerate your mastery of searching in SuiteScript with realistic, fully functioning examples, check out my Searching with SuiteScript cookbooks.
