Schedule a weekly NetSuite saved-search CSV email

Schedule a NetSuite saved search as a weekly CSV email. Set specific recipients, message and timing, then reopen the configuration to check it.

The quick answer

On the saved search’s Email tab, enable scheduled emails, add recipients, choose CSV output and set a weekly schedule. Save and reopen the configuration; verify actual delivery in a separate test.

The screenshots show a recorded demonstration with sample data. Use your own records and values when following the steps.

Before you start

Use an existing search you can edit, with eligible recipient records and valid email addresses. Check the schedule’s timezone and search-owner permissions. The final email and CSV shown here are illustrative output, not a live inbox or proof that the schedule executed.

01. Inspect the current email settings

Edit Fulfillments awaiting dispatch and open Email. Send Emails According to Schedule starts clear. Keep the search criteria and result definition unchanged.

The existing search starts without scheduled email enabled.

02. Enable the schedule and add recipients

Select Send Emails According to Schedule and Summarize Scheduled Emails; clear Send If No Results. Add Morgan Ellis and Jamie Rivera under Specific Recipients and confirm both rows. Their email addresses come from their records. Keep at least one recipient outside Bcc.

Both specific recipients are committed while empty-result delivery is disabled.

03. Set the message and CSV output

Under Customize Message, enter Weekly dispatch queue and Review these fulfillment documents before dispatch planning. Select Send as CSV. The message should explain the attached queue.

Send as CSV is selected for the summarized results attachment.

04. Choose the Friday schedule

Open Schedule, choose Weekly Event and repeat every 1 week on Friday. Set September 11, 2026 and 9:30 AM, check the applicable timezone, and select No End Date. Choose Save & Run.

The weekly schedule starts Friday at 9:30 AM in the displayed timezone.

05. Reopen the saved configuration

Inspect the unchanged fulfillment results, then reopen Edit → Email. Check both recipients, email flags, message, CSV selection and Friday schedule. Save & Run saves and runs the search; it does not prove scheduled email delivery.

The reopened search retains its Friday schedule.

06. Read the representative email

The illustrative message addresses the two configured recipients and repeats the subject and introduction. Its attachment is weekly-dispatch-queue.csv. Treat this as an explanation of intended output, not a delivered test message.

The example message reflects the saved subject, recipients and CSV attachment.

07. Compare the illustrative CSV rows

Open the attachment preview. Match IF-5612 for Alder Retail and IF-5613 for Pinegrove Supplies to the search results, including dates, amounts and items. Actual export formatting can differ; delivery still needs a controlled scheduled-run test.

The sample CSV contains the same two fulfillment documents.

Check the result

  1. The reopened configuration retains recipients, CSV and weekly timing.
  2. The sample output matches the demonstrated result rows.
  3. A real scheduled run and delivery are checked separately.

Common questions

How do I schedule saved-search results every week as a CSV attachment?

Edit the existing saved search and select Send Emails According to Schedule. Add the intended Specific Recipients, select Send as CSV under Customize Message, then set Schedule to Weekly Event with the required day, start date, time, and no end date. Check the timezone shown for the schedule. Save the search with Save & Run.

Does Summarize Scheduled Emails send separate results to each recipient?

No. For Specific Recipients, it produces one summarized email for the listed recipients. When recipients come from search results, it summarizes each recipient’s matching results; Results summary fields override the Summarize Scheduled Emails setting. It does not make Specific Recipients receive separate filtered emails.

Will the scheduled email send if the search has no results?

Not when Send If No Results is cleared. If the option is selected, NetSuite may send an email even when the search returns nothing. Recipients must also be supported records with usable email addresses, and the user and search must have the required access.

Does Save & Run prove that the weekly email was sent?

No. Save & Run saves the configuration and opens the current search results; it does not prove delivery or that a recurring run has completed. Reopen the Email and Schedule settings to confirm what was saved, then use a separate test with controlled, deliverable addresses or review the account’s email records after the scheduled run. An illustrative email or CSV preview is not proof of delivery.
