Hi all,
I have a requirement where I need to trigger some code when a record is created via the nlapiTransformRecord call. This in particular applies to the ‘Item Fulfillment’ record.
I apologize if this is a duplication post, which i’m sure it is. Any advice on how to achieve this? The typical user event to create event is not triggering, like it does on other records.
For example:
var itemFulfillment = nlapiTransformRecord(‘salesorder’, recordId, ‘itemfulfillment’);
nlapiSubmitRecord(itemFulfillment); // < --- This does not execute my user event script attached to it
This is a cached copy. Click here to see the original post. -

You need to execute the nlapiSubmitRecord from either a Scheduled Script or a Suitelet/Restlet. User Event and client scripts do not trigger scripting on the target record when they submit.

One workaround idea: if you can wait up to 15 minutes, you can run a scheduled script and get the trigger to fire.
You might also be able to deploy/schedule a scheduled script from your user event.

Yeah I agree with khultquist, that’s the only workaround I see. You’ll need to have a schedule script edit/save all your records. It’s a really, really bad workaround, but if that’s all you got to work with, it’ll do. You may need to recode some of your script though, for example if you have logic that needs to run on create only. Technically while coming in as an edit, the scheduled script would be the first execution for these records and so should be considered a ‘create’. So, you’ll need to consider that.

Since this is third party code, check if the third party code is taking any other actions that trigger other UE scripts. If so, you may be able to piggy-back off of those.
Also, if the 15 minute wait time is unreasonable, you can have an external process that calls a restlet at the frequency of your choosing.

I have a similar problem with WMS, in which workflows or user events are not firing after the Item Fulfillment record is created.
When the Item Fulfillment record is created via WMS, the context is “Script (Suitelet).”
Any inputs?

Hey David,
Interestingly enough, I ended up piggybacking off of the actual Ship Manifest Record. The item fulfillment record we needed was created after the ‘PACK’ procedure, if you’re outside of the ERP system. I was able to accomplish what i needed doing the following.
Upon WMS Ship Manifest After Submit (post-committal), find all of the item fulfillment records I need to work with
Build an object containing my data points
Do stuff [for the lack of a better term]
Best of luck
