record.transform() – Smart Record Conversion

Function Highlight: record.transform({ fromType, fromId, toType })

  • Use Case: Instantly convert one transaction type to another, like Sales Order → Invoice, Quote → Sales Order, etc.
  • Why Uncommon: Developers often try to “manually copy fields” instead of using this native API.
  • Ideas to Cover:
  • Transforming and modifying on the fly before saving
  • Chaining transformations (e.g., Quote → SO → Invoice in one flow)
  • Gotchas with missing sublists or line-level transformations
