New to NetSuite | User Event Script: beforeSubmit Function

Building upon our previous exploration of the beforeLoad function, this article focuses on another essential customization tool in NetSuite: the beforeSubmit function. Understanding these functions is crucial for developers aiming to tailor NetSuite's capabilities to specific business needs. 

The beforeSubmit function can be used to oversee the behavior of the system prior to record submission or saving. It enables the execution of various actions and validations, ensuring data adheres to specific criteria and triggers additional processes when needed. One can think of it as a crucial checkpoint in the data entry process. 

Sample Scenarios of beforeSubmit Usage: 

  • Developers can utilize beforeSubmit to validate user-entered data. For instance, when creating custom forms, it can check for valid email formats or mandatory fields, preventing incomplete or incorrect data submission. 

Howdy, Stranger!
