```record.submitFields({
type: "bin",
id: 1077,
values: {'binnumber': 'abcd'}
});```
^ no error
```record.submitFields({
type: "bin",
id: 1077,
values: {'custrecord_rfs_is_staging': true}
})```
^ error

Hmm that's really weird. Why would trying to change a custom field cause an unexpected error :disappointed: When I modify the code to load/set/save the record it works no problem.

Custom field made locally or by a bundle?

Made locally. Just an integer field storing a number. Thought maybe it was an issue with accepting the value, so I tried changing it to a free-text field but still had the same issue

Yeah not sure, maybe other record fields arent submitFields-able.  Seems like a weird thing to happen

I made a new one on bin records and get unexpected error as well.

<@UM202703E> is the field fine by this?

You *can* use this method to edit and submit the following:
• Standard body fields that support inline editing (direct list editing). For more information, see Using Inline Editing.
• Custom body fields that support inline editing.
You *cannot* use this method to edit and submit the following:
• Select fields
• Sublist line item fields
• Subrecord fields (for example, address fields)


<@UH9SBRX7E> this specific field is a custom body field, and I don't see anything that would suggest it doesn't support inline editing. Is there a way I can check to see if it does or does not?

I think it should be enough to pull the field out in a search or so and see if it's editable in inline mode, I might be wrong but I think so.. <@UM202703E>

<@UH9SBRX7E> It doesn't appear to be inline editable. I wonder how NetSuite determines what custom body fields are inline editable, and which ones aren't. Or perhaps it's a settings issue with this particular client's account.

The account has inline-editing enabled, so I'm at a loss

Is inline editing enabled in the custom record?

I'm not really sure this makes a difference but you could also try to enable this option on the field:

Also:

"If a field on a record is referred to by a formula custom field, you cannot edit the referenced field with inline editing. For more information on sourcing, see Creating Formula Fields."

Both of those settings are enabled, and the field isn't referred to by a formula custom field. I'm at a loss on this one

<@UM202703E> what about the visibility of the field, is it maybe set to inline or disabled in the preferred form?
