Here are the general steps: 1. Initialize the deposit into a deposit application record using the

initialize()

function. This function takes an

InitializeRef

object as a parameter, which should be set to the internal ID of the customer deposit record you want to apply. 2. Each line of the apply sublist in the deposit application record represents a transaction that you can apply the deposit to. You would need to go through each line to find the line that matches your invoice. 3. Once you've found the matching line, mark the apply checkbox of that line to true. This will apply the deposit to the invoice. Here's a pseudo-code example based on the conversations:

javascript
var depositApplication = record.transform({
    fromType: record.Type.CUSTOMER_DEPOSIT,
    fromId: depositId,
    toType: record.Type.DEPOSIT_APPLICATION,
});

var lineCount = depositApplication.getLineCount({sublistId: 'apply'});
for (var i = 0; i < lineCount; i++) {
    var invoiceId = depositApplication.getSublistValue({
        sublistId: 'apply',
        fieldId: 'internalid',
        line: i
    });
    if (invoiceId == targetInvoiceId) {
        depositApplication.setSublistValue({
            sublistId: 'apply',
            fieldId: 'apply',
            line: i,
            value: true
        });
        break;
    }
}

depositApplication.save();

Please replace

depositId

and

targetInvoiceId

with the actual internal IDs of the customer deposit and the invoice you want to apply it to. Remember, this is a transactional operation, not a relationship. So, you need to ensure that the customer deposit and the invoice are related to the same customer. Also, be aware of any sublist count limits or user filters that might affect your ability to find your transaction in a sublist.
