On Sales Order save, if you transform to an IF and save, should it trigger the Item fulfillments user event scripts?

It won't trigger the UE scripts if you're transforming it in a UE script

Even though it's a sales order user event script? I thought the IF ue scripts would trigger still

Not as far as I know. I usually use a backend suitelet for stuff like that. SO UE script > Suitelet > IF UE scripts

does your suitelet have to be the external url?

Unfortunately yes

Thanks. Wish they had an easy way to call it without making it external or have the token info

I mean, I guess you could also have the UE script trigger a scheduled script on demand

True. If I need it, i'll probably have it call a suitelet.

Another thing to maybe try is to use a workflow to transform the SO into an IF. I don't think I've done that and would be interested to know if that triggers the IF UE scripts

workflow action scripts can trigger UEs but workflows have the same issue. You have 2 options here here to do this in a decent way. Either have a scheduled process that picks up the Sales Orders and processes them into IF which will fire the UE or add another button that calls a suitelet (does not need to be available without login) that does the transform and saves which will fire the UE.

@creece How do you call the internal suitelet without it being available without login?

@screnshaw you're already authenticated on the client side so you can use N/url.resolveScript to get the URL and add the record Type/ID as a params and in the suitelet read the params and load/save the record.

Ah, that's right. you have to be on the client side to do that

yeah thats the button click option
