how to trigger when sales order closed?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To trigger an action when a Sales Order is closed in NetSuite, you can use a combination of User Event Scripts and SuiteScript. However, it's important to note that the 'Close Order' button does not directly trigger a User Event. One approach is to use a

beforeLoad

User Event Script, which is triggered when the user views the Sales Order after closing it. However, this method does not have access to the

oldRecord

, so it cannot differentiate between a Sales Order that was closed recently and one that was closed in the past. To overcome this, you can use a custom field (like a checkbox) that you mark after your script runs on a closed order. Here's a sample code snippet for this approach:

javascript
function beforeLoad(context) {
    if (context.type !== context.UserEventType.VIEW) return;
    var record = context.newRecord;
    var isClosed = record.getValue('your_custom_field');
    if (isClosed) {
        // Your code here
    }
}

Another approach is to create a custom 'Close Order' button that triggers your script when clicked. This can be done by customizing the form and removing the native 'Close' action from the Actions subtab, then adding your custom button. Remember to test your scripts thoroughly to ensure they work as expected. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
