How to automatically preset inventory status on bin transfer

&gt;*AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):*
To automatically preset inventory status on bin transfer, you can create a client script that triggers when the bin transfer form is loaded. This script can then automatically set the preferred bin and quantity based on the inventory detail bin that is being changed.

Here is a general idea of how you can approach this:

1. Create a client script that is triggered on the 'pageInit' event. This event is triggered when the record page is initialized.

2. In the script, use the `record.getCurrentSublistValue` method to get the current bin value from the sublist.

3. Use the `record.setCurrentSublistValue` method to set the preferred bin and quantity.

Please note that this is a general approach and you might need to adjust it based on your specific requirements and the structure of your form.

Please provide your feedback on this answer.

• Go to: `Setup → Accounting → Inventory → Locations`
• Each location can have a default inventory status.
• When transferring between bins within that location, the system will preselect that status.


We have NS One World and I cannot find what you are referring to.
• I can go to Locations but I don't see this path `Setup → Accounting → Inventory → Locations` and I don't see "Default Inventory Status".
Sorry, I am lost.

Before you go to locations, you must enable Inventory status.
Go to:
Setup → Company → Enable Features → Items &amp; Inventory
and Check "Inventory status"
NetSuite does NOT natively provide a “Default Inventory Status” field on Location records

We have that feature enable and we use inventory status; however, I don't see where I can assigned a Default Inventory status on a Location record.

OK... I think making SuiteScript is a solution.
I have some experience about suitescript. should i help you?

I am a one man show here. I take care of all NS related request, but scripting is something that I still have to learn by myself.
No money here and I don't have budget for consultants either.

I don't want your budget. I want to be your partner and help you.

Thanks a lot. I appreciate the help.
I will reach out to you as soon as we decide if we need to do this in Netsuite. We might use RF-Smart to transact all Bin transfers.
Thank you again.
