Is being fetched dynamically. The sample:
Input metadata for Transaction objects:
{
"internalId": "string",
"externalId": "string",
"deletionReasonCode": "deleteionReasonCodeString",
"deletionReasonMemo": "deletionReasonMemoString"
}
Please Note: the following about the deletionReason parameter:
The deletionReason complex type includes two fields: deletionReasonCode and deletionReasonMemo. The deletionReasonCode must identify a deletion reason that is listed at Setup > Accounting > Accounting Lists. If the Use Deletion Reasons feature is enabled and you use the deletionReasonCode to identify a code that does not exist, the request fails with an INVALID_REF_KEY error.
Deletion reasons can be saved only for transactions. However, in SOAP web services, you must use the deletionReason parameter even when referencing other record types, and even when the Use Deletion Reasons feature is not enabled. For situations where it is not appropriate to identify a deletion reason, pass in a value of null.
Even when a deletion reason is required, you can use a value of null. In these cases, the system automatically populates the deletion reason fields with default values. These defaults are: Other for deletionReasonCode and This transaction was deleted by script or web service for deletionReasonMemo.
The deletionReason complex type is defined in the core XSD.
For more details about the Use Deletion Reasons feature, see Recording a Reason for Deleting a Transaction.
Input metadata for other objects:
{
"internalId": "string",
"externalId": "string"
}
{
"internalId": "string"
}
Allows to get an item availability based on its type and internal ID provided
Input metadata example:

"internalId": "1234"
}

Lookup an object by the ID provided.
Looks for objects available in NetSuite which meet given criteria.
Use this action to execute the following types of searches:
Basic search — Execute a search on a record type based on search filter fields that are specific to that type. See Basic Searches in SOAP Web Services.
Joined search — Execute a search on a record type based on search filter fields on an associated record type. See Joined Searches in SOAP Web Services
Advanced search — Execute a search on a record type in which you specify search filter fields and/or search return columns or joined search columns. Using advanced search, you can also return an existing saved search. See Advanced Searches in SOAP Web Services.
Object Type - an object in NetSuite (Contact, Customer etc.). Fetches dynamically.
A basic search lets you search records of a specific type using the fields on that record as search filters. In a basic search, field criteria are the only values you set. You cannot specify search return columns. The full list of available objects to search can be found in the Help Center (may vary for each installation). You can find the entire metadata of each object there as well.
Log in to your NetSuite account > Suite Cloud (Customization, Scripting, and Web Services) > SuiteCloud Platform Introduction > SuiteCloud Records Reference Tools > The SuiteScript Records Browser > Click ‘Go to the SuiteScript Records Browser.’
Then choose Schema Browser > ‘common’ from the dropdown list and open the Search
tab at the left.
What you should do next is to build a correct search request using object fields and operators.
It is just the recommended list. You should always use an actual one based on the Help center of your account.

Execute a search on a record type based on search filter fields on an associated record type. A joined search allows you search against a specific record type using the fields on an associated record as search filters. In the NetSuite UI, you can identify which associated records provide joined filter criteria by first navigating to a record’s search interface.
Once again, you can find the list of available objects in the Help Center. The component will dynamically fetch all the list with an available metadata. But you should always look at the documentation to build a correct search request.

Search Type: Contact Search Join
The following sample shows how to return an associated joined list of records. In this case, all contacts associated with customers of internalId 1, 2 and 3 are returned.

Execute a search on a record type in which you specify search filter fields and/or search return columns or joined search columns. Using advanced search, you can also return an existing saved search.
Advanced searching provides users with the ability to:
The SOAP web services API includes advanced search objects for all records that have an existing search interface.
Please check your ‘Advanced Search’ Help center section in order to build a correct request. You can find it in the following way:
Log in to your NetSuite account > Suite Cloud (Customization, Scripting, and Web Services) > SuiteTalk Web Services > SuiteTalk SOAP Web Services Platform Guide > SOAP Web Services operations > search > Advanced Searches in SOAP Web Services.
The component will always fetch all the existing metadata for the advanced search for you. All you should do is to delete what you don’t need and to build a correct request based on the documentation.
