AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
Based on the conversations, you can use SuiteScript 2.1 to update the options in a SELECT field when another field changes. This can be achieved by using a client script and the
N/currentRecord
module. Here is a sample code snippet that demonstrates how to do this:
Copy code
javascript
/**
 * @NApiVersion 2.1
 * @NScriptType ClientScript
 */
define(['N/currentRecord'], function(currentRecord) {
    function fieldChanged(context) {
        var record = context.currentRecord;
        var fieldId = context.fieldId;

        if (fieldId === 'your_trigger_field_id') {
            var selectField = record.getField({ fieldId: 'your_select_field_id' });

            // Clear all existing options
            selectField.removeSelectOption({ value: null });

            // Add new options based on some condition
            var newOptions = getNewOptions(); // Implement this function based on your requirements
            newOptions.forEach(function(option) {
                selectField.insertSelectOption({
                    value: option.value,
                    text: option.text
                });
            });
        }
    }

    return {
        fieldChanged: fieldChanged
    };
});
In this script,
fieldChanged
is a client script function that is triggered when a field value changes. If the field that changes is the one you're interested in (replace
'your_trigger_field_id'
with the actual ID), it clears all existing options from the SELECT field (replace
'your_select_field_id'
with the actual ID) and inserts new options. The
getNewOptions
function is a placeholder for your own function that retrieves the new options based on your specific requirements. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
