NSC | Create or Update a record using a custom button with user confirmation via Client Script

Buttons are used to automate additional actions that are part of the company’s process to improve efficiency and overall make it easier for employees to perform their tasks.

To avoid accidental clicks, you can place a confirmation dialog using a Client Script. You may use the sample code below as a reference where I update Item Fulfillment records to Packed, based on the results of an existing saved search that I called using search.load(options).

/**

 * @NApiVersion 2.x

 * @NScriptType ClientScript

 * @NModuleScope SameAccount

 */

define(['N/search','N/record'],

 

function(search, record) {

      function pageInit(scriptContext){

           

      }

     

    function updateRecords(){

      var msg = {

                  title: 'Update Records',

                  message: 'Do you want to update Item Fulfillment Records to Packed status?'

                  };

     

            dialog.confirm(msg).then(performIfYes).catch(performIfNo);   

    }

   

    function performIfYes(){

      var mySearch = search.load({

                  id : '125'

                  });

     

        mySearch.run().each(function(result) {

            var internalid = result.getValue({

                name: 'internalid'

            });

           

            var itemFulfillment = record.load({

                  id: internalid,

                  type: record.Type.ITEM_FULFILLMENT

            });

           

            itemFulfillment.setValue({

                  id: 'shipstatus',

                  value: 'B'

            });

           

            itemFulfillment.save();

 

            return true;

        });

    }

   

    function performIfNo(){

      alert('You have chosen not to update Item Fulfillment Records');
