Pre populating custom records

edited Dec 3, 2019 9:11AM in SuiteCloud / Customization 3 comments

I’m new to NetSuite so be gentle

I’ve created a custom record type called ‘Rooms’ which contains fields such as height, width, etc.  I managed set the parent to ‘Item’ with the help of the NS staff so now a table with ‘New Room’, ‘Attach’ and ‘Customise View’ buttons appears in a tab in the Inventory Item Form.

Here’s my problem:
I want to be able to pre populate the table (mentioned above) with values of my choice.  E.g. when I create a new inventory item and click save, in the background I want to be able to add a few rooms with height and width defined to the record being saved. Now I know I need to implement a server side script that fires on the beforesubmit/aftersubmit event. The question is, how?

Howdy, Stranger!
