Standard mode is also referred to as deferred dynamic mode.

There are two modes you can operate in when you work with a record in SuiteScript: standard mode and dynamic mode.

In standard mode, the record’s body fields and sublist line items are not sourced, calculated, and validated until the record is saved.

In dynamic mode, the record’s body fields and sublist line items are sourced, calculated, and validated in real-time. A record in dynamic mode emulates the behavior of a record in the UI.

For additional information on standard and dynamic mode, see record.Record.
