what does the code for your field look like

```sublist.setSublistValue({
   id: 'custpage_date',
   line: i,
   value: results[i].date
});```


the code creating the field, not the code setting it

```sublist.addField({
   id: 'custpage_date',
   type: 'DATE',
   label: 'Date'
});```


Yes, that's what I am saying that I want to it in a Date field.

```var d = results[i].date.split(' ')[0];
d = nsFormat.format({
   value: d,
   type: 'DATE'
});```


<@UD5AG5SGM> You should be using ENUM:
`
```serverWidget.FieldType.DATE```
`

```results[i].date.split(' ')[0];```
alone should work, you dont need to format it

<@U7A0KGURX> I am using ENUM. I was just changing things when the code was not working.

Also, <@U5TF1GQ20> I was not able to change the field type to DateTime. Invalid Field Type error is returned.

```results[i].date.split(' ')[0];```
This worked. Thanks

DATETIME and DATETIMETZ are 2 different field types under serverWidget.FieldType

but why isn't DATETIME type working? Is it a known issue?

NetSuite own fields can be DATETIME, the ones you create cannot

basically the option you choose needs to be in the ss1 listing

the list for sublists is slightly different
