What is the best way to disable a transaction line field through a script? is it possible and consistent on edit mode?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

Based on the conversations, it is possible to disable a transaction line field through a script. You can use the

nlapiDisableLineItemField()

function in SuiteScript to disable a line item field. This function takes two parameters: the first is the group (or sublist) name as a string, and the second is the field name as a string. Here is an example of how you might use it:

javascript
nlapiDisableLineItemField('item', 'quantity', true);

In this example, 'item' is the group name and 'quantity' is the field name. The third parameter,

true

, disables the field. If you want to enable the field, you would use

false

. However, it's important to note that this function only works in client scripts, and it only affects the current user session. It does not permanently disable the field. As for the consistency on edit mode, it depends on how the script is implemented. If the script is set to run on form initialization or field change, it should consistently disable the field whenever the form is loaded or the field is changed. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
