AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
To create a new line and populate it in a non-dynamic record using SuiteScript, you can use the
setSublistValue
method from the
N/record
module. This method allows you to set the value of a field in a sublist line. Here is a sample code snippet:
Copy code
javascript
var record = require('N/record');

var rec = record.load({
    type: 'salesorder',
    id: 12345,
    isDynamic: false
});

var lineCount = rec.getLineCount({
    sublistId: 'item'
});

rec.setSublistValue({
    sublistId: 'item',
    fieldId: 'item',
    line: lineCount,
    value: 67890
});

rec.save();
In this example, we first load the record using the
load
method. We then get the number of lines in the sublist using the
getLineCount
method. We use this count as the line number for the new line (since line numbers start at 0, the next line number is equal to the current line count). We then set the value of the 'item' field in the new line using the
setSublistValue
method. Finally, we save the record using the
save
method. Please note that the
setSublistValue
method works in standard mode, not in dynamic mode. If you need to work in dynamic mode, you would need to use the
selectNewLine
and
setCurrentSublistValue
methods instead. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
