A Client Script is typically used for form-level scripting and is executed on the client's browser. It can be used to set a default value when the form loads. For example, you can use the

pageInit

function in a Client Script to set a default value for a field when the form is initialized. On the other hand, a User Event Script is executed on the server side. It can be used to set a default value for a field when a record is being loaded or saved. For example, you can use the

beforeLoad

or

beforeSubmit

function in a User Event Script to set a default value for a field. However, it's important to note that Client Scripts are dependent on the client's browser and may not always execute as expected. Therefore, if the behavior is critical, it's prudent to back it up with a server-side script like a User Event Script. In conclusion, both Client Scripts and User Event Scripts can be used to set a default value for a field in NetSuite. The choice between the two depends on your specific requirements and the level of reliability you need.
