I am trying to get a client script to send an error when saving a credit memo with an inactive item. For some reason this doesn't work even though it is literally the example in the documentation:

curRec.getCurrentSublistSubrecord({sublistId: 'item', fieldId: 'item});

are you simply missing a single quote after ’item?

no, I have a work computer that won't allow slack so I hand typed it

What example are you trying to follow. To my knowledge, there is no subrecord in a column named item

I think <@UEH8GAN8M> is looking at the example code for
`CurrentRecord.getCurrentSublistSubrecord(options)`

AFAIK the item field is not a subrecord and the example code is very misleading.

I would say the example is wrong, but the little note at the top says `It is not a functional example`. Its still garbage

In regard to the use case, NetSuite should already give a warning if you try to transform a credit memo with an inactive item

if you still want to give another error message, you will probably want to do an item search to check if the item is inactive
