write a netsuite script to auto apply payments to invoices and journals

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

Based on the conversations, it seems like you are trying to automate the application of customer payments to invoices and journal entries in NetSuite using SuiteScript. Here's a general approach to achieve this: 1. Use a User Event script that triggers after the submission of an invoice. 2. In the script, use the

record.transform

method to mimic the effect of the

Accept Payment

button on the invoice. This will create a new customer payment record. 3. Use the

Record.setSublistValue

method to apply the appropriate credits towards the payment. This is equivalent to marking the same checkboxes you would in the UI. 4. You might need to use

Record.findSublistLineWithValue

or

Record.getSublistValue

to find which line you want to mark. Here's a simplified example of how the script might look:

javascript
var record = require('N/record');

function afterSubmit(context) {
    var invoiceId = context.newRecord.id;

    var customerPayment = record.transform({
        fromType: record.Type.INVOICE,
        fromId: invoiceId,
        toType: record.Type.CUSTOMER_PAYMENT
    });

    // Apply credits here using customerPayment.setSublistValue or similar

    var paymentId = customerPayment.save();
}

Please note that this is a simplified example and you might need to adjust it according to your specific requirements. Also, it's important to note that NetSuite might not actually create the customer payment if the credits balance out the payment amount to 0, but it will apply the chosen crediting transactions to your invoice. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
