Chain together User Event Scripts
The Suitescript documentation says you cannot execute one user event script from another.
We are creating a sales order during a before submit function. Normally, when a sales order is saved, it calls a before submit function, (let's call it CalculateSalesTax), which calculates sales tax using our sales tax software that's integrated with NetSuite. But when we create a sales order, this second function call never happens. Because you can't call one from the other!
What workarounds have others tried? Queue up a list of records we want to calculate and schedule a task to process them is the first thing I was thinking of.
