AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ****** Based on the conversations, it appears that you are unable to delete a Sales Order because it has a Work Order associated with it. This is a common issue in NetSuite as it prevents deletion of records that are referred to by other records to maintain data integrity. Here are a few suggestions that might help: 1. Check for Dependent Transactions: Ensure there are no dependent transactions linked to the Sales Order. This could include Cash Refunds, Returns, or any other transactions that might be referring to the Sales Order. 2. Detach the Work Order: You could try using

record.detach

to remove the link between the Sales Order and the Work Order. However, this might not always work as expected. 3. Create a Custom Field: If the Work Order was not created from the Sales Order, you could create a custom field and manually link them. This might allow you to delete the Sales Order. 4. Change the Status of the Work Order: If a line from a Work Order in progress needs to be deleted, you could try changing the status of the Work Order and then attempt to delete the line. If this doesn't work, you might need to close the Work Order and create a new one. 5. Delete the Linked Work Order: If a Work Order was created from another Work Order, you would need to delete the linked Work Order first before you can delete the original one. Please note that these are suggestions based on previous conversations and might not work in all scenarios. Always ensure to maintain data integrity when making changes to records in NetSuite.
