Cost Allocation Method drop down

Scenario: One the Landed Costs tab of Item Receipts, the field value of Cost Allocation Method drop down option to be set as Quantity, the second option, rather than weight.

Solution:

Normally this can be achieved by using workflow. In this condition we are not able to fetch the field “Cost Allocation Method” in workflow. So we use client script to fix this issue

/**
 * @NApiVersion 2.1
 * @NScriptType ClientScript
 */

 define(['N/currentRecord'], 
function(currentRecord){
    function pageInit(scriptContext) {
        var myRecord = currentRecord.get();
            myRecord.setValue({
                fieldId: 'landedcostmethod',
                value: 'QUANTITY'
            });

  }

 return {
        pageInit: pageInit
    };
});

 });

Note: UserEvent script is not applicable here, since the code should be working in both Create and Edit mode. Client script will works in UI, for perform CSV imports we have to use UserEvent script
