How to Print Transfer Orders and Inventory Transfers in NetSuite
NetSuite offers native printing for Transfer Order picking tickets, while Inventory Transfers require custom solutions for printing.
Short answer
Transfer Orders allow printing and customization of picking tickets. Inventory Transfers lack native print layouts, requiring custom approaches. For basic prints, URL parameters might be explored, while complex formatting necessitates server-side scripting with XML to PDF.
Scenario
Users often need to generate printable documents for both Transfer Orders and Inventory Transfers within NetSuite. While Transfer Orders offer built-in printing capabilities for picking tickets, Inventory Transfers present a challenge due to the absence of native printing layouts, requiring alternative methods to produce physical records.
Solution
To address printing needs for Transfer Orders and Inventory Transfers in NetSuite, consider the following approaches:
Transfer Orders
The picking ticket for a Transfer Order can be printed. The layout of this picking ticket can be customized to meet specific requirements.
Inventory Transfers
Inventory Transfers do not have native printing layouts. To generate printouts, consider these methods:
- If basic, unformatted printouts are acceptable, users may explore appending URL parameters to the Inventory Transfer record's URL to trigger a basic print function. For bulk printing scenarios, this approach might be integrated into a custom batch printing solution utilizing
nlapiRequestURL. - For more complex formatting requirements, XML to PDF solutions can be deployed on the Inventory Transfer record, as it supports server-side scripting.
