I'm having an error when I try to transform a newly created sales order to an invoice.

Here's my code: 

  define(["N/log", "N/email", "N/record"], function(log, email, record) {

    function afterSubmit(scriptContext) {

        var newOrderId = scriptContext.newRecord.id;

        var objRecord = record.transform({
            fromType: record.Type.SALES_ORDER,
            fromId: newOrderId,
            toType: record.Type.INVOICE,
            isDynamic: true
        });

Here's the error details:

Account: 3671783

Record Type: Sales Order
Internal ID: 668978

I don't know what am I doing wrong.

What status is the Sales Order in when you're trying to transform it? Before you can Invoice an SO, there are some criteria that must be met under certain conditions:

  • If you have Approvals on for Sales Orders, then your SO must be Approved before you can Invoice it.
  • If any of the Items on the SO are fulfillable, then the Order must be fulfilled (i.e. have an associated Item Fulfillment) before you can Invoice it
    • UNLESS you have the INVOICE IN ADVANCE OF FULFILLMENT setting enabled (Setup > Accounting > Accounting Preferences > Order Management > Invoicing), then you can forego the Item Fulfillment
