Is there a way to identify locked custom records via script?

However, there are a few workarounds that you can consider: 1. Using a Custom Checkbox: You can create a custom checkbox field on the record that indicates whether the record is locked or not. When a workflow or script locks the record, it can also set this checkbox to true. Your script can then check the value of this checkbox before processing the record. This method requires you to have control over the workflows or scripts that are locking the records. 2. Catching Errors on Record Load: If a record is locked and you try to load it via SuiteScript, NetSuite will throw an error. You can catch this error in your script to identify that the record is locked. However, this method might not be reliable as it depends on the error handling mechanism of your script. 3. Using Optimistic Locking: NetSuite's Optimistic Locking feature can help prevent conflicts when multiple scripts or users are trying to modify the same record. If a record is modified by another process after you've loaded it but before you save your changes, NetSuite will throw an error. This can help you identify that the record is locked, but it doesn't prevent other scripts or users from attempting to modify the record. Remember, these are workarounds and may not work in all scenarios. It's always a good idea to thoroughly test your scripts to ensure they behave as expected.
