Override Default Email in beforeLoad user event

edited Jan 8, 2020 3:35AM in SuiteCloud / Customization 5 comments

Hello,
Does anyone know how to override the default email action using a before load user event script?

I've always done this by trapping and re-setting the tobeemailed flag in the beforeSubmit user event (i.e. detect the to be emailed was checked; reset it; send my custom email) but if the beforeSubmit user event works then that's cleaner and should (I'm guessing) work if the transaction is auto emailed by some other mechanism.

Unfortunately the "tobeemailed" flag isn't set when I test type == 'email' in the beforeLoad so I can't reset it. Nor does it appear I can just return false from the beforeLoad event to signal I've handled the issue.

Howdy, Stranger!
