Anyone remembers how to add a Ship To Address to a Sales Order without adding that address to the customer address book?
Ship to Select (`shipaddresslist`) = Custom.

should work reasonably well in server script

Untitled.js

probably want to simplify something that can run in the debugger

```require(["N/record"], function (record) {
  var rec = record.create({
    type: record.Type.SALES_ORDER,
    isDynamic: true,
  });
  rec.setValue({
    fieldId: "entity",
    value: "9",
  });

  log.debug("rec address before", rec.getValue({ fieldId: "shipaddress" }));
  log.debug(
    "rec shipaddresslist before",
    rec.getText({ fieldId: "shipaddresslist" })
  );

  rec.setValue({
    fieldId: "memo",
    value: "102A",
  });
  var subrec = rec.getSubrecord({
    fieldId: "shippingaddress",
  });
  subrec.setValue({
    fieldId: "country",
    value: "US",
  });
  subrec.setValue({
    fieldId: "city",
    value: "New York",
  });
  subrec.setValue({
    fieldId: "state",
    value: "New York",
  });
  subrec.setValue({
    fieldId: "zip",
    value: "10018",
  });
  subrec.setValue({
    fieldId: "addr1",
    value: "8 W 40th St.",
  });
  rec.selectNewLine({
    sublistId: "item",
  });
  rec.setCurrentSublistValue({
    sublistId: "item",
    fieldId: "item",
    value: "9",
  });
  rec.setCurrentSublistValue({
    sublistId: "item",
    fieldId: "quantity",
    value: "11",
  });
  rec.commitLine({
    sublistId: "item",
  });

  log.debug("rec address after ", rec.getValue({ fieldId: "shipaddress" }));
  log.debug(
    "rec shipaddresslist after",
    rec.getText({ fieldId: "shipaddresslist" })
  );

  var recId = rec.save();

  var reloaded = record.load({ type: "salesorder", id: recId });
  log.debug("reloaded address", reloaded.getValue({ fieldId: "shipaddress" }));
  log.debug(
    "reloaded shipaddresslist",
    reloaded.getText({ fieldId: "shipaddresslist" })
  );
});```

<@U5TF1GQ20> It does not work in beforeSubmit, only afterSubmit.

are the subrecords fields correct and the shipaddress field wrong

beforeSubmit it does not save the custom changes at all... after submit it works correctly...

my minor experimentation suggests that saving a record in standard mode mostly works while dynamic mode does not

the mostly part being the shipaddress text isnt updated

yep, crazy stuff... but it is what it is, I remember seen this before...

try removing the subRecord and then set it (and potentially overwrite the shipaddress field)
