add new lines to sales order using suitescripts

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ****** To add new lines to a sales order using SuiteScript, you can use the

selectNewLine

and

setCurrentSublistValue

methods in a user event script. Here is a sample code snippet:

javascript
tranRec.selectNewLine({sublistId:'item'});
tranRec.setCurrentSublistValue({sublistId:'item',fieldId:'item',value:item});
tranRec.setCurrentSublistValue({sublistId:'item',fieldId:'quantity',value:quantity});
tranRec.commitLine({sublistId:'item'});

However, if you're working on the client side, you might need to use

forceSyncSourcing

to commit the line after the item is done sourcing. For a before submit user event script, you only need to use

setSublistValue

on the next available line. You don't need to insert the line unless you actually want to insert a line at the first line. For an after submit user event script, you need to load the record again and save it to make your changes. But keep in mind that this could potentially double your sales order save times. Please note that these methods are part of the SuiteScript API and you should refer to the official NetSuite documentation for more details and usage guidelines.
