Delay after nlapiSetCurrentLineItemText

edited Dec 2, 2019 6:26PM in SuiteCloud / Customization 2 comments

I am trying to automatically add a discount line onto a Invoice transaction that is  currently triggered by a custom button but designed to eventually use an Page Init Function.


nlapiSelectNewLineItem('item');    nlapiSetCurrentLineItemText('item', 'item', 'Discount Item');   nlapiSetCurrentLineItemValue('item', 'rate', '1');



The above code works as expected. The Discount Item is set then the rate (and consequently the amount) is set - (Desired Result).

But after ~0.5 sec the rate disappears and VAT/TAX is added.

My guess is that the Discount Item is causing some sort of post sourcing wiping out the rate.

Question:  How can I set other Line Item Values without them being wiped out?

Howdy, Stranger!
