How to Display Disclaimer or Message Fields on Multi-Page NetSuite Forms

Implement a custom text field anchored to the page bottom and configured to appear on all additional pages for consistent messaging.

Short answer

To display a disclaimer or message field consistently across multiple pages of a NetSuite form, create a custom text field on the record. Populate this field with the desired text, anchor it to the bottom of the page, and ensure the "Show on Additional Pages" printing option is enabled. This ensures the message appears on every page.

Scenario

Users often need to include important disclaimer or message text that appears consistently on every page of a multi-page NetSuite form, such as a sales order or invoice. Standard field configurations may not always provide the desired persistent display, especially when anchoring text to the footer across all pages.

Solution

While some elements might appear to offer persistent footer anchoring, a reliable method for custom text involves a dedicated custom field.

  1. Create a custom text field on the relevant NetSuite record. This field will contain the disclaimer or message text.

  2. Ensure the custom text field is initialized with the required disclaimer text on every record where it needs to appear.

  3. Configure the custom field's layout to anchor it to the bottom of the page.

  4. For printing, set the custom field's display options to "Show on Additional Pages." This ensures the text appears on every subsequent page of the form.While this configuration ensures the text appears on all pages, displaying it exclusively as the last footer on only the final page may not be directly achievable through standard settings.
