NetSuite SuiteScript.
Customisation that survives the next release

SuiteScript is how NetSuite does what configuration cannot. It is also how accounts become slow, fragile and hard to upgrade, when scripts are written without standards, error handling or ownership.

We write, review and fix SuiteScript and SuiteFlow, deployed through the SuiteCloud Development Framework and tested against each NetSuite release.

LanguageSuiteScript 2.x

Modern modules, not legacy 1.0 code.

DeploymentSDF

Customisations in source control and deployed as projects.

GovernanceUsage-aware

Scripts designed within NetSuite governance limits.

ReleaseTested twice a year

Checked in release preview before each upgrade.

What we build

SuiteScript written to be maintained

Every script is a piece of software you own. These are the patterns we deliver, each built with logging, error handling and documentation.

User event and client scripts

Validation, defaulting and automation on record create, edit and save, and in-form behaviour for users.

Kept light, because they run on every save.

Rules enforced at the point of entry.

Scheduled and Map/Reduce

Bulk processing, recalculations, data fixes and integrations that run in the background within governance limits.

Map/Reduce used for volume, with restart and logging.

Large jobs that finish reliably.

Suitelets and RESTlets

Custom pages inside NetSuite and REST endpoints for integrations with other systems.

Endpoints secured with token-based authentication.

Clean entry points for people and systems.

SuiteFlow workflows

Approvals and record lifecycles built in SuiteFlow where it is enough, with script actions only where needed.

Configuration before code, always.

Approvals the business can read.

Script review and remediation

Existing scripts audited for performance, governance usage, errors, duplication and upgrade risk, then fixed in priority order.

Slow saves and failed scheduled jobs usually trace back here.

A faster, quieter account.

SDF and release management

Customisations moved into SuiteCloud Development Framework projects with source control and repeatable deployment.

Sandbox to production without manual rebuilding.

Changes you can track and roll back.

How SuiteScript work runs

StepOneSpecify

Requirement checked against standard features and SuiteFlow first, then specified with records, triggers, volumes and error cases.

Many script requests are met by configuration.

You receive:

A technical specification

What runs, when, on what, and what happens on failure.

Agreed before code.

StepTwoBuild

Script written in SuiteScript 2.x under source control, with logging and governance checks.

Code reviewed by a second developer.

You receive:

Reviewed code

Ready for sandbox testing.

Documented in the repository.

StepThreeTest

Tested in sandbox with realistic data volumes, including failure paths and concurrent use.

Volume testing catches governance problems early.

You receive:

Test evidence

Functional and volume results.

Signed off by the process owner.

StepFourDeploy and support

Deployed through SDF, monitored after release and checked in each release preview.

Errors alerted, not discovered.

You receive:

A supported script

With run book and owner.

Tested against every release.

Approach

Configuration first, code only where it earns it

Most NetSuite accounts that become slow and hard to upgrade got that way through scripts nobody owns, written to reproduce how an old system worked.

We check standard features and SuiteFlow before writing code, and when code is needed it is SuiteScript 2.x, in source control, deployed through SDF and tested against each release.

Questions we get asked

Before a SuiteScript project

Can you fix scripts another partner wrote?

Yes. We review them first, document what they do, and fix or rewrite in priority order of risk and impact.

Our saves are slow. Is it scripts?

Often. Heavy user event scripts and stacked workflows are the most common cause. A script review measures it.

Do you still support SuiteScript 1.0?

We support existing 1.0 scripts and recommend migrating them to 2.x when they next need significant change.

What is SDF and do we need it?

The SuiteCloud Development Framework packages customisations as projects in source control. It makes deployment repeatable and changes traceable, which matters once an account has more than a handful of scripts.

Can you build integrations with RESTlets?

Yes, or with SuiteTalk REST, or through an integration platform such as Oracle Integration Cloud, depending on volume and complexity.

Send us thescript list.

Or the error log. A script review shows what is slowing the account and what to fix first.
