how do I create a work order from a sales order in script

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To create a work order from a sales order in script, you can use the

record.create

method in SuiteScript. However, there is no direct transform function from a Sales Order (SO) to a Work Order (WO) in NetSuite. Here's a general approach you can take: 1. Configure the item on the sales order to generate the work order automatically. This can be done in the item record settings. 2. If you want to generate a work order only when there isn't already inventory available to fulfill it, you can add a before submit script on the sales order. This script would check if the line will be backordered (quantityavailable - quantity) < 0. If it's less than 0, then check the 'createwo' box. 3. If you want to add approval logic to the process, you can use a Suitelet for approval. Once approved, the work order will be created automatically. Please note that this is a general approach and you might need to adjust it according to your specific business requirements. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
