Supply Chain Snapshot Simulation
The supply chain snapshot simulation record is used to provide a simulation of a transaction to determine what the effect that transaction would have on your inventory.
The supply chain snapshot simulation record is only available when the Supply Chain Control Tower feature is enabled at Setup > Company > Enable Features, on the Items & Inventory subtab. When the feature is enabled, you can access a list of supply chain snapshot simulation records in the UI by going to Lists > Supply Chain > Supply Chain Snapshot Simulations.
For help working with the supply chain snapshot record in the UI, see Supply Chain Control Tower.

Code Samples
The following sample shows how to create a supply chain snapshot simulation.
function createSimulation(location, item, quantity, date) {
var simulationRecord = nlapiCreateRecord('supplychainsnapshotsimulation', {recordmode: 'dynamic'});
simulationRecord.setFieldValue('memo', 'Simulation for item id=' + item);
simulationRecord.setFieldValue('transactiontype', 'PurchOrd');
simulationRecord.setFieldValue('quantity', quantity);
simulationRecord.setFieldValue('status', '5');
simulationRecord.setFieldValue('itemnamenumber', item);
simulationRecord.setFieldValue('supplylocationdate', date);
simulationRecord.setFieldValue('supplylocationsubsidiary', 1);
simulationRecord.setFieldValue('supplylocation', location);
var simulationKey = nlapiSubmitRecord(simulationRecord);
return simulationKey;
