How to Enable Text Wrapping for Fields on NetSuite Transaction Printouts?
NetSuite often truncates field content on printed transactions, but a custom text area column can be configured to ensure proper text wrapping.
Short answer
To enable text wrapping for fields on NetSuite transaction printouts, create a custom column field of type 'Text Area' with 'Store Value: False' and a default value of `to_char({fieldid})`. Customize the form to display this new field, ensuring the original field is also present but can be hidden by setting its width to 0.0001.
Scenario
When printing transactions in NetSuite, users may observe that certain fields are truncated rather than displaying their full content with text wrapping. This behavior can lead to incomplete information on printed documents, making it difficult to review or share transaction details effectively.
Solution
To implement text wrapping for fields on NetSuite transaction printouts, follow these steps:
Create a custom column field.
Configure the custom field with the following properties:Type: Text AreaStore Value: FalseDefault Value:
to_char({fieldid})Customize the relevant transaction form to include and print this newly created custom field.
Ensure that the original field being sourced by the custom field is also present on the printout. To hide the original field while maintaining its presence for sourcing, set its width to 0.0001.
