This method might seem a bit unconventional, but it works effectively. Here is a simple example of how you can do this:
javascript
function beforeSubmit(context) {
if (context.type === context.UserEventType.CREATE || context.type === context.UserEventType.EDIT) {
throw nlapiCreateError('E9999', 'You cannot save this record.', true);
}
}
In the above code, we are throwing an error in the beforeSubmit function if the user is trying to create or edit a record. The error message 'You cannot save this record.' will be displayed to the user and the record will not be saved.
Please note that you cannot show a popup in beforeSubmit. You could potentially do this in a client script in onSave, but that would only run in edit/create not view.
Another option is to move the logic to afterSubmit and if the record shouldn't have been allowed to be created, delete it and then redirect.
