How can I update the status of a NetSuite invoice using only SuiteScript?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To update the status of a NetSuite invoice using SuiteScript, you can use the

record.submitFields

method. This method allows you to update specific fields on a record without loading the entire record into memory. Here is a sample code snippet:

javascript
var record = require('N/record');

function updateInvoiceStatus(invoiceId, newStatus) {
    record.submitFields({
        type: record.Type.INVOICE,
        id: invoiceId,
        values: {
            status: newStatus
        }
    });
}

In this example,

invoiceId

is the internal ID of the invoice you want to update, and

newStatus

is the new status you want to set for the invoice. Please note that the status field might be read-only depending on your NetSuite settings, in which case you would not be able to update it directly. In such cases, you might need to perform some action that changes the status, such as making a payment or applying a credit memo. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
