how do I create a work order from a sales order that is already approved in script

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To create a work order from a sales order that is already approved in script, you can use a SuiteScript. Here's a general idea of how you can do it: 1. Create a User Event script that triggers on the 'After Submit' event of the Sales Order record. 2. In the script, check if the Sales Order is approved. You can do this by checking the value of the 'orderstatus' field. If it's 'B', then the Sales Order is approved. 3. If the Sales Order is approved, you can then create a Work Order record. You can do this by using the

record.create

method and setting the necessary fields. Here's a basic example of how the script might look:

javascript
/**
 * @NApiVersion 2.x
 * @NScriptType UserEventScript
 */
define(['N/record'], function(record) {
    function afterSubmit(context) {
        var salesOrder = context.newRecord;
        if (salesOrder.getValue('orderstatus') === 'B') { // 'B' is the internal id for Approved status
            var workOrder = record.create({
                type: record.Type.WORK_ORDER,
                // set other necessary fields
            });
            // set other necessary fields
            workOrder.save();
        }
    }

    return {
        afterSubmit: afterSubmit
    };
});

Please note that this is a simplified example and you might need to adjust it according to your specific needs. For example, you might need to set additional fields on the Work Order record, or you might need to handle errors and edge cases. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
