How should literals be represented in NetSuite format?

In NetSuite, literals are represented using double quotes, making this the correct choice. This format applies to strings and provides clarity in script writing and querying. When using double quotes, it ensures that the text is treated as a string in contexts like SuiteScript, saved searches, or during the construction of custom formulas.

Using single quotes or plain text does not consistently denote string literals in NetSuite's syntax, which can lead to confusion or errors in code execution. Numeric format, on the other hand, is specifically for numbers and does not encompass string representations. Therefore, double quotes are explicitly required to signify that the text should be interpreted as a literal string within the system.
