We have a script, beforeSubmit that runs off of a hold checkbox. However, we also have a workflow, beforeSubmit, that sets the hold values.

Both have to be beforeSubmit. How would I have the workflow run before the script?

Say a prayer and hope they work :pray: ... otherwise sounds liek logic should be consolidated and moved into same script/workflow

the unfavorable alternative answer is to use <https://system.netsuite.com/app/help/helpcenter.nl?fid=section_4341725558.html|N/workflow>

mixing workflows and scripts generally is a failing answer because now you you need someone who knows both to maintain it

Turns out I was also wrong and it is in an afterSubmit. So when I created a workflow action, it failed because "record was saved" lol.

Poor design on the contractor company who wrote this
