Got a strange one. I have a UE (beforeload) script that I want to override the default

email

On Sales order on CREATE/COPY. • for some reason it won't override the email field • The script is running and I can update the memo field && untick the TO BE EMAIL checkbox as well. • I have done this before so not sure why its not working. Any thoughts on what it could be? • I have got it working via Client script but its not ideal as they will have API creating SO in the future

Tried changing the sequence of your script from the Scripted Records page?

Yep moved it to the TOP. no WF or any form scripts that seems to be blocking

That's a weird one. I suggest to do log and get field value on all entry points. There might or should be something reverting it back

yeah I thought so as well. If i fetch the value its already set to the default email. I tried to clear it but it does not clear it as well. Did a client script as as work around but its annoying as hell

email on a SO is sourced from customer, yeah?

yes default is from customer

that sourcing is taking place AFTER your BEFORE load

UE before load : When I log the value is already set to default email

Just tested on my end, and it works at the very end of the beforeLoad entry using setValue()

Only thing is this customer is on 24.2 already

I'm not entirely sure what this means, but I usually just default to dong this stuff in a client script

Yeah that what I ended up doing. but when a SO is created via script these won't run. thus the prefered way in UE before load. But I get the issue with the sourcing

Do it in beforeSubmit then ?

The customer needs the ability to change it if needed. Thus needs to happen on the before load

So do it in both ? Use a pageinit which does whatever job you are trying to do. And if the context is UI then don't run the UE logic.
