New to NetSuite | User Event Script Overview 

edited Jun 10, 2025 2:59PM in SuiteCloud

SuiteScript is a JavaScript-based NetSuite API that provides a way to enhance the core capabilities of NetSuite, making it adaptable to various industry-specific requirements and unique business processes. It supports both server-side and client-side scripting. Server-side scripts run on NetSuite's servers and can access the platform's data and business objects, enabling the creation of powerful back-end processes. Client-side scripts, on the other hand, run within the user's browser, enhancing the user interface, and providing real-time interactions. 

User Event Scripts run on the server-side that is triggered on three different entry points: 

  • beforeLoad – when opening a record starts processing but before the record loads.
