The function NVL({field}, value) is designed to handle null values in data fields. When it is executed, it checks the value contained in the specified field. If the field is indeed null, NVL will return the second parameter, which is the default value provided. This is particularly useful when you want to ensure that your application handles nulls gracefully by providing a fallback or default value that can be used if the primary field data is unavailable.

Therefore, if you were to use NVL to check a field that may be empty or not set, you could ensure that your logic continues to operate correctly by receiving the provided default value instead of encountering issues or errors due to a null reference. This facilitates smoother data management and presentation throughout your NetSuite operations.
