What type of field type do I need to use in sublist.addField if I want to update with transactions?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To update a field in a sublist with transactions, you would need to use the

Record.setSublistValue

or

Record.setCurrentSublistValue

methods in SuiteScript 2.0. These methods allow you to set the value of a field on the current sublist line in dynamic or standard mode respectively. Here is an example of how you might use these methods:

javascript
var record = record.load({
    type: record.Type.SALES_ORDER, 
    id: '123'
});

// For dynamic mode
record.selectNewLine({
    sublistId: 'item'
});
record.setCurrentSublistValue({
    sublistId: 'item',
    fieldId: 'quantity',
    value: '2'
});
record.commitLine({
    sublistId: 'item'
});

// For standard mode
record.setSublistValue({
    sublistId: 'item',
    fieldId: 'quantity',
    line: 1,
    value: '2'
});

In this example, we're updating the 'quantity' field on the 'item' sublist of a Sales Order record. The

selectNewLine

method is used to select a new line on the sublist in dynamic mode, and

commitLine

is used to save the changes to the line. In standard mode, you can directly set the value of a field on a specific line using

setSublistValue
