beforeSubmit trigger on server side creation event?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

The beforeSubmit trigger can indeed be activated on a server-side creation event. This trigger is part of the User Event Script in NetSuite's SuiteScript, and it is designed to execute when a record is being submitted, but before it is actually saved to the database. In the context of a server-side creation event, the beforeSubmit trigger can be used to validate or modify the data in the record before it is saved. However, it's important to note that the

context.oldRecord

object does not exist in a beforeSubmit trigger during a create event, as there is no previous version of the record. You will only have access to the

context.newRecord

object, which contains the data that is about to be saved. Also, if you are updating a record using

record.save()

in a User Event Script, the beforeSubmit and afterSubmit triggers can be activated, but this depends on the settings of the deployment. However, User Event Scripts do not chain, meaning if you save a record in one User Event Script, it will not trigger another User Event Script. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
