Can you help me get started writing a beforeLoad user event script, that when emailing from the communication tab on a purchase order, the script defaults the email template based on the custom form for the transaction?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

Sure, you can achieve this by creating a User Event Script that triggers on the beforeLoad event. Here's a high-level overview of how you can do this: 1. Create a new User Event Script and set the trigger to beforeLoad. 2. In your script, you'll need to check if the context is 'email'. You can do this by checking if

context.type === context.UserEventType.EMAIL

. 3. If the context is 'email', you can then get the custom form of the transaction using

record.getValue('customform')

. 4. Based on the custom form, you can then set the email template. You can do this by setting the value of the 'emailtemplate' field on the record. Here's a basic example of how your script might look:

javascript
/**
 * @NApiVersion 2.x
 * @NScriptType UserEventScript
 */
define(['N/record', 'N/runtime'], function(record, runtime) {
    function beforeLoad(context) {
        if (context.type === context.UserEventType.EMAIL) {
            var customForm = context.newRecord.getValue('customform');
            var emailTemplate;

            // Set the email template based on the custom form
            if (customForm === '1') {
                emailTemplate = '10'; // Replace with your template ID
            } else if (customForm === '2') {
                emailTemplate = '20'; // Replace with your template ID
            }

            if (emailTemplate) {
                context.newRecord.setValue('emailtemplate', emailTemplate);
            }
        }
    }

    return {
        beforeLoad: beforeLoad
    };
});

Please replace the '1', '2', '10', and '20' with your actual custom form and email template IDs. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
