AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
Based on the conversations, it seems you want to create a SuiteScript 2.0 server script to update the external ID field of all vendor payment records upon their creation. Here's a basic example of how you might do this using a User Event Script:
Copy code
javascript
/**
 * @NApiVersion 2.x
 * @NScriptType UserEventScript
 * @NModuleScope SameAccount
 */
define(['N/record', 'N/runtime'], function(record, runtime) {
    function afterSubmit(context) {
        if (context.type !== context.UserEventType.CREATE)
            return;
        
        var newRecord = context.newRecord;
        var externalIdValue = 'Your Value'; // Replace with your logic to generate external ID

        try {
            record.submitFields({
                type: newRecord.type,
                id: newRecord.id,
                values: {
                    externalid: externalIdValue
                },
                options: {
                    enableSourcing: false,
                    ignoreMandatoryFields : true
                }
            });
        } catch (e) {
            log.error({
                title: 'Error updating External ID for ' + newRecord.type + ' ' + newRecord.id,
                details: e
            });
        }
    }

    return {
        afterSubmit: afterSubmit
    };
});
This script will run after a vendor payment record is created and will update the external ID field with the value you specify. Please replace
'Your Value'
with your logic to generate the external ID. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
