AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
To customize a script that updates the Purchase Order document number when changes are made via inline edit, you can use a User Event Script in NetSuite's SuiteScript. Here's a basic example of how you might structure this script:
Copy code
javascript
/**
 * @NApiVersion 2.x
 * @NScriptType UserEventScript
 */
define(['N/record'], function(record) {
    function beforeSubmit(context) {
        if (context.type !== context.UserEventType.CREATE && context.type !== context.UserEventType.EDIT) {
            return;
        }
        var newRecord = context.newRecord;
        var documentNumber = newRecord.getValue('tranid');
        // Add your custom logic to modify the documentNumber here
        // For example, to add a prefix:
        var newDocumentNumber = 'PREFIX-' + documentNumber;
        newRecord.setValue('tranid', newDocumentNumber);
    }
    return {
        beforeSubmit: beforeSubmit
    };
});
This script gets the current document number (
tranid
), modifies it according to your custom logic, and then sets the new value. In this example, a prefix is added to the document number, but you can replace this with your own logic as needed. Please note that this script will run every time a Purchase Order is created or edited, so you may want to add additional checks to ensure it only runs when necessary. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
