NetSuite SearchFilter Internal Account Type Codes

This article is relevant if you develop software using NetSuite’s SuiteScript.

NetSuite Account Type SearchFilters

If you are developing a search query and you need to reference the NetSuite General Ledger Account Types, you need to translate what you see in the Saved Search user interface to the equivalent nlobjSearchFilter code.

SuiteScript Code Example

Here is code that looks for all the Accounts Receivable accounts:

// return the number of Accounts Receivable Accounts defined within the NetSuite Account
function getARCount(){

	var filters = [];
	filters[0] = new nlobjSearchFilter('type', null, 'is', 'AcctRec' );
	var searchresults = nlapiSearchRecord('account', null, filters, []);

	if (searchresults){
		return searchresults.length
	} else {
		throw nlapiCreateError('getARCount_ERROR', 'Function did not return an AR Account.');
	};
};
