Triggering Workflows through SuiteScript
Since most workflows operate using the same model as user event scripts, you can execute nlapiLoadRecord and nlapiSubmitRecord from your scripts to trigger your workflows.
nlapiLoadRecord causes a Before Record Load workflow trigger to fire.
nlapiSubmitRecord causes Before Record Submit and After Record Submit triggers to fire.
You can also use nlapiTriggerWorkflow to trigger a workflow. It seems like the best use of it is to submit a workflow button click, since you cannot do that through traditional means using nlapiSubmitRecord.
nlapiTriggerWorkflow('employee', 1288, 'customworkflow_nel_approve_training', 'workflowaction_nel_approve_training');
This causes a workflow named customworkflow_nel_approve_training to be triggered for employee 1288. workflowaction_nel_approve_training is the name given to the Script ID when configuring the Add Button action.
