update a batch of sales orders (changing transaction lines) through rest api

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To update a batch of sales orders (changing transaction lines) through REST API, you would need to use a script to load and save the record. Unfortunately, this operation cannot be done via inline edit or

record.submitFields

. Here is a general idea of how you might approach this: 1. Load the sales order record using

record.load

method. 2. Navigate to the line you want to update using

record.selectLine

method. 3. Update the field using

record.setCurrentSublistValue

method. 4. Commit the line using

record.commitLine

method. 5. Save the record using

record.save

method. Please note that this operation might take a long time if you have a large number of lines to update. Also, keep in mind that NetSuite has line limit recommendations. Here is a sample code snippet:

javascript
var salesOrder = record.load({
    type: record.Type.SALES_ORDER,
    id: 'your_sales_order_id'
});

salesOrder.selectLine({
    sublistId: 'item',
    line: 'your_line_number'
});

salesOrder.setCurrentSublistValue({
    sublistId: 'item',
    fieldId: 'your_field_id',
    value: 'your_new_value'
});

salesOrder.commitLine({
    sublistId: 'item'
});

salesOrder.save();

Please replace

'your_sales_order_id'

,

'your_line_number'

,

'your_field_id'

, and

'your_new_value'

with your actual values. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
