Configure Where Used Link mapping

In NetSuite it is often useful to know which assemblies or BOM revisions are using a specific component. We'll make use of the rowData object + secondarySourceComponentId (The id of the item in NetSuite) to generate the link.

This link is displayed in the BOM comparison page which you can click in the BOM. This link will open a new tab showing all the inventory records making use of this component / assembly.

To setup Where Used, add a Property Mapping with accessor value whereUsed:
