Anyone know how to replicate the behavior of this Work Order link via script?
• I can create a Work Order with all the details, but cannot set the "Created From" to the parent WO.

The link is this -
/app/accounting/transactions/workord.nl?soid=154455&amp;soline=45&amp;specord=T&amp;entity=2053&amp;assemblyitem=14818&amp;quantity=1&amp;location=4

I have no experience with work orders but have you tried passing those URL parameters as defaultValues to `record.create()`

Interesting idea. I tried created from as a default, but not those. I'll give it a try

The one thing I would add is that the `specord` (or with POs, `dropship`) parameter needs to be a boolean, not a string (`true`, not `"T"`)
SO -&gt; WO isn't a "supported" transformation, but neither is SO -&gt; PO (dropship or special order) and we _*can*_ do that

Hm. I've tried the above with and without the other variables as string and specord as a boolean. I'll continue to fiddle though and see if this works out

I may have joy, it remains to be seen. The extra difficulty is we have BOMs with thousands of items, so the iteration cycle is *long.* Also why we have this weird requirement for creating work orders.

Success! I pared it down a bit -
record.create({
  ....
  defaultValues: {
    soid: {enterYourParentWorkOrderId},
    soline: '{enterItemLineIndex + 2}',
    specord: true
  }
