NetSuite Reference

picktask

transactionLocation-scoped

The warehouse pick task: one row per item, lot/serial and recommended bin a picker is asked to pull, with the picked and remaining quantities and the wave it belongs to.

Grain note

totalpickedquantity and totalremainingquantity are STATE, not a flow — they are overwritten as the task progresses, so pick throughput over time needs a dated snapshot of this record, not a sum of its columns.

Notes

Browser page name is pickTask. Warehouse-management feature-gated: accounts not running NetSuite WMS have the record and no rows. The wave column is a pointer to a wave record that is not in the analytics catalog under that name, so it is read as an id rather than joined. The page lists no joins at all, which is why this record ships with no edges.

What the badges mean
master
Data class: what the record holds — master data, transaction documents, control/configuration, or a documented convenience record. NetSuite has no product-family or schema axis, so this is the whole classification.

Structural facts — how the record is partitioned, not a trap by itself

Subsidiary-scoped
The record carries a subsidiary column that partitions its rows, so the generated SQL anchors it. On a few records the column is a multiselect rather than a scalar foreign key — the table notes say which (see the quirks guide).
Location-scoped
The record carries a location column — an org segment in NetSuite before it is a warehouse — and the generated SQL anchors it the same way.

Join & extract hazards — verify before you rely on this

View
A documented convenience record rather than a stored one. Land the records it stands in for instead of assuming it extracts as-is — the table notes say where the rows actually live.
In field listings, the Key chip marks a primary-key field, and the T/F chip marks a check-box column Connect returns as a 'T'/'F' string.

Boilerplate SQL

Starting point for reading the Connect-landed copy of picktask on Databricks — dates are real DATE/TIMESTAMP columns and need no conversion, and the partition anchors are already in place. This record carries no modification stamp, and the snippet says so where the watermark would otherwise go. Set your Unity Catalog location, schema, and filter values below; they’re substituted into the SQL and the copy button.

Query parameters

-- ============================================================
-- Table  : picktask — The warehouse pick task: one row per item, lot/serial and recommended bin a picker is asked to pull, with the picked and remaining quantities and the wave it belongs to.
-- Purpose: Column-selected read of picktask — auto-generated from field metadata
-- Grain  : One row per id
-- Caution: totalpickedquantity and totalremainingquantity are STATE, not a flow — they are overwritten as the task progresses, so pick throughput over time needs a dated snapshot of this record, not a sum of its columns.
-- Notes  : Auto-generated skeleton for NetSuite data landed in your lakehouse from a SuiteAnalytics Connect (or SuiteQL) extract — it never addresses live NetSuite. Identifiers are lowercase as NetSuite2.com renders them. Select-type columns hold numeric internal ids: BUILTIN.DF() display resolution exists only at extraction time, so decode ids by joining the landed list records; see quirks #display-values. Check-box columns arrive as 'T'/'F' strings; see quirks #tf-booleans.
