Remove “Total” row from Netsuite summary saved search

Question

I have a saved search with group and summed entries. I want to export them to CSV but I don't want a row for the total. Is there any way to remove this? It seems to appear by default for summarized searches regardless of whether or not "Show Totals" is checked.

Answer 1

The trick is to produce summed results without using the "Sum" summary type. If you use a formula field, you can include "SUM" as part of the formula, summarize using the "Maximum" summary type, and get the same results without seeing the Totals row.

Creating a Saved Search results column with the following gets you summarized "Amount" values, but results in a Totals row:

FIELD: Amount

SUMMARY TYPE: Sum

The following formula will result in the same summarized "Amount" values, but will not prompt a Totals row from NetSuite:

FIELD: Formula (Currency)

SUMMARY TYPE: Maximum

FORMULA: SUM({amount})
