Loading a custom transaction form record using
let r = record.load({ type: 'custform', id: 178 }) and trying to get the 'Print Template' value.
r.getValue('advformlayout') returns null.
The value exists though. Any ideas?

12/12/2023, 5:31 PMIf its the same PDF, i'd make a script parameter that stores the template ID and then have your script read that template ID and use it.
