how can I record.create to gen special ID?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
To generate a special ID when creating a record, you can use the
record.create
method in SuiteScript. However, the internal ID is not assigned until the record is saved. If you need the ID of the new record, you generally would do that in an afterSubmit User Event. Here is a basic example of how you can create a record and get its ID:
Copy code
javascript
var record = require('N/record');
var newRecord = record.create({
    type: record.Type.SALES_ORDER,
    // other fields...
});
var recordId = newRecord.save();
In this example,
recordId
will hold the internal ID of the newly created record after it is saved. If you need to keep track of multiple record IDs, you can store them in an array or write them to a custom field or external system for later use. Remember, if you're working with a GL plugin, you won't have access to the record ID on creation. You can read the values you need from the record itself and then create a search to get the info you need from the other/related records. If you set the script to run asynchronously then you can access the id. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
