SuiteScript 2.0: Setting multiple default subsidiaries on record creation

edited Jun 2, 2025 2:22PM in Ask A Guru

Overview

It is possible that most of your items fall under a common but multiple subsidiaries. On such cases, you might want to default into those subsidiaries during creation especially if you're creating new items on a regular basis. This article will feature a simple instruction on how to implement such functionality with SuiteScript 2.0 but the logic can also be implemented with a workflow.

How?

  1. On a client script, add a pageInit function.
  2. Get the current record instance.
  3. Add an if statement to use the default only on record creation.
    • Note: This is important to give your users an option to change the subsidiary after record creation.

Howdy, Stranger!
