According to the NetSuite documentation, Item Fulfillment is scriptable on the server side. Specifically, it mentions that scripts can interact with Item Fulfillments during processes like validateLine, fieldChanged, etc. I’ve tested these entry points but haven’t seen the desired results. Could you clarify how to properly set up client or server scripts for Item Fulfillment, especially using the validateLine function?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

Based on the conversations, it seems that you can use the

pageInit

function in a client script to run a script on Item Fulfillment page load in the NetSuite UI. For automating invoice/cash sale creation that triggers upon saving the item fulfillment record, you can use the

nlapiTransformRecord

function. However, you don't need to set any quantity on the transformed record, as the transform does that for you. If your

Invoice in Advance of Fulfillment

or

Show Unfulfilled Items on Invoices

preference is enabled, then your invoice would be for all quantity, regardless of fulfillment. To preserve a field value from an Item Fulfillment after it gets billed and creates a Sales Invoice, you can use

pageInit

or

beforeLoad

in a user event script. You can deploy the script on the invoice and use the URL to figure out which item fulfillment you should be getting. Here is a sample code snippet for transforming a sales order into an invoice:

javascript
require(["N/record"], function (record) {
  record
    .transform({ fromType: "salesorder", fromId: "4212", toType: "invoice" })
    .save();
});

And here is a sample code snippet for using `nlapiTransformRecord`:

javascript
var invoice = nlapiTransformRecord('salesorder', salesOrder, 'invoice');
