AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
Based on the Slack conversations, it appears that there is no direct way to cancel a transaction through SuiteScript. However, there are a few workarounds that have been suggested: 1. One option is to do the equivalent of clicking the cancel button if client script is an option. However, this may not be feasible in all scenarios, such as when you need to perform the operation in a map reduce script. 2. Another workaround is to set the quantity of each item to 0, effectively cancelling the order. 3. There is also an undocumented SuiteScript 1.0 function
cancel_approve_order(<record_id>, 'cancel');
which is what NetSuite calls internally when you cancel an order. Please note that this is an undocumented feature and may not be supported in all versions or scenarios. 4. Lastly, it was mentioned that you can call the URL that the browser navigates to when you click cancel in the UI. The URL was given as
../app/accounting/transactions/salesordermanager.nl?type=cancel&id=internalid_of_salesorder
. Please note that these are workarounds and may not work in all scenarios or may have unintended side effects. Always test thoroughly before implementing in a production environment. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
