ClientScript Question, On an Invoice, what is the most efficient way to get the Document Number of the Created From Sales Order. 1. Get the Sales Order Id from the Created From Field and Load the record then call

getValue

on the Sales Order Record 2. Call

getText

on Created From Field and parse out the Document Id Option 2 seems a lot more efficient but potential for mistakes, Option 1 seems terrible inefficient but a sure value.

I use

search.lookupFields()

to get the tranId and type, to ensure the 'createdfrom' is actually a sales order -- unless you always know it's a sales order.

Good call, need to consider an Invoice created from something other than Sales Order

Or if the Invoice was created as stand-alone, and it doesn't have a createdfrom.

@nathanw As @suitedev mentioned you can use

search.lookupFields()

, if you are worry about the Type you can use

record.Type.TRANSACTION

and then get the

tranid

.

Technically, you should probably use

search.Type.TRANSACTION

, but I agree otherwise!

I don't think there's an ENUM for 'TRANSACTION'
