SuiteScript 2.x Script Creation Process

Here’s the basic process flow for creating a SuiteScript 2.x script. For a more detailed explanation with a sample script, check out SuiteScript 2.x Hello World. If you want to see a diagram of a valid script’s structure, see SuiteScript 2.x Anatomy of a Script.

1	Use the `define()` function to load SuiteScript 2.0 modules in your entry point script. This is the script you attach to the script record.	Modular Architecture SuiteScript 2.x Global Objects
2	Add the required JSDoc tags to your entry point script.	SuiteScript 2.x JSDoc Validation
3	Add at least one entry point function to your script. An entry point function is a named function that runs when an entry point is triggered. Important: Your entry point script can only use one script type. For example, it can’t return both a `beforeLoad` entry point and an `onRequest` entry point.	SuiteScript 2.x Script Types
4	Organize your supporting code into custom modules (instead of SuiteScript 1.0 libraries). Create these modules with the `define()` function, then load them in your entry point script.	SuiteScript 2.x Global Objects
