set default expense folder using script

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
To set a default expense folder using a script, you can leverage the SuiteScript API. However, it's important to note that this is not a built-in feature of NetSuite and would require custom scripting. Here's a general idea of how you could approach this: 1. Create a User Event script that triggers on the 'beforeLoad' event of the transaction record. 2. In your script, use the
record.setCurrentSublistValue
method to set the default folder for the file field on the expense line. Here's a pseudo-code example:
Copy code
javascript
function beforeLoad(context) {
    if (context.type !== context.UserEventType.CREATE) return;

    var transactionRecord = context.newRecord;
    transactionRecord.selectLine({
        sublistId: 'expense',
        line: 0
    });

    transactionRecord.setCurrentSublistValue({
        sublistId: 'expense',
        fieldId: 'folder', // replace with the actual field id
        value: 'default_folder_id' // replace with the actual folder id
    });

    transactionRecord.commitLine({
        sublistId: 'expense'
    });
}
Please replace 'folder' and 'default_folder_id' with the actual field id and folder id respectively. Remember, this is a pseudo-code and may not work as is. You would need to adjust it according to your specific requirements and test it thoroughly before deploying. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
