Features Available Using Functional Mappings

Functional mappings allow you to configure and map complex data objects that cannot be directly mapped using a single field or hard-coded mapping. To meet these complex mapping needs based on your business requirements, you can utilize NetSuite's SuiteScript capabilities.

Note: All functional mappings must be specified in the file: suite_promoapi_invoice_transformers.js. 

The out-of-the-box functions demonstrate the format in which data can be returned. However, you will need to modify the code according to your specific requirements. The function has access to the current items being returned in the response. If you need to access fields that are not configured in  the PromoStandards Setup screens, you will need to configure them in the Additional Search Columns section under the respective setup screen.

ProductPart Object > ColorArray

In the Product Data response, we have included an item field mapping to display the color from the item record. However, this mapping can only display a single value for the color object.

To display multiple colors from the color array in the product data response, you need to create a functional mapping in the suite_promoapi_invoice_transformers.js file. Name this functional mapping as product_getPartColorArray().
Sample function:
/**
 * 
 * @param {Object} args 
 * @prop  {Object} args.itemSearchResult
 * @prop  {Object} args.itemSearchResults
 * @prop  {Object} args.partItemSearchResult
 * @prop  {Object} args.partItemSearchResults
 * @prop  {Object} args.setupPartColorFieldMap
 */
function product_getPartColorArray(args) {
    return [{
      Color: [{
        standardColorName: 'Blue',
        hex: '#00F',
        approximatePms: '#00249c',
        colorName: 'Blue',
      }]
    }];
  }
Note: This feature is supported in eXtendPS-SE 1.3.8 and above.

Product Pricing & Configuration Service

eXtendPS-SE supports certain features exclusively through the use of functional mappings. The following is a list of features that are supported by functional mappings:

Item Price Level Mapping

Mapping between NetSuite price levels and PromoStandards price levels can be specified on the eXtendPS-SE P&C setup screen. This configuration will send the pricing data of the configured price levels in the PromoStandards response for all items.

If you want to include other price level data in the PromoStandards pricing response for specific sets of items or a certain time period, you can use the function getItemPriceLevelMap() provided in the suite_promoapi_invoice_transformers.js file. An example use case would be if you want to send a special price for certain items during a special sale period, you can utilize this feature.

Note: To include custom search columns in the main item search results, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the P&C setup screen.
  2. Under the Additional Configuration section, specify the columns you want to add in the "Additional Item Search Columns" field.
  3. For decoration data, make sure you have a saved search that includes the additional columns you need.
  4. In the Decoration Field Mapping section of the P&C setup, enter the saved search ID in the "SAVED SEARCH ID FOR DECORATION" field.

Filtering Pricing Groups

If you want to include specific pricing groups in the PromoStandards pricing response, you can use the function getContextualPriceSearchResult() provided in the suite_promoapi_invoice_transformers.js file.
