I am receiving an error in my beforesubmit userevent script of obj.selectNewLine is not a function - I want to add a new line to my sales order in this script. Why am I receiving this error and how can I fix that?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

The error you're receiving is because the

selectNewLine

function is not available in a User Event script. This function is part of the dynamic record API and is typically used in client scripts. In a User Event script, the record is not in dynamic mode. To add a new line to a sales order in a User Event script, you should use the

setSublistValue

method. Here's an example of how you can do this:

javascript
var lineCount = record.getLineCount({sublistId: 'item'});
record.setSublistValue({sublistId: 'item', fieldId: 'item', line: lineCount, value: itemId});
record.setSublistValue({sublistId: 'item', fieldId: 'quantity', line: lineCount, value: quantity});

In this example,

itemId

and

quantity

are the values you want to set for the new line. The

line

parameter for

setSublistValue

is zero-based, so if you want to add a new line, you should use the current line count as the line number. Please note that modifying records in a beforeSubmit User Event script can have performance implications, as it can double the save time of a record. It's also important to be aware that changes made in a beforeSubmit script are not visible to the user until after the record is saved. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
