I have the following code:

 record.submitFields({ type: 'customrecord_property_record',
 id: _id,
 values: {_field : _new_value}
}) ;

the _field contain the Netsuite field I want to update,

_field is variable. How can I do that ?

``` record.submitFields({ type: 'customrecord_property_record',
     id: _id,
     values: {[_field] : _new_value}
 });```

Hopefully you're not hammering the record updating one field at a time :smile:

You can declare seperate object outside

Then assign all key and values outside first
Then assign the object in values property

Follow Anthony response to set key for your objects

My fault. Anthony is right
Problem was on the chair
