hello guys, i have a dropdown field in the child record of a form. how to get the dropdown values. i tried the get value method but it returns the value 'undefined'

are you trying to get the select options of the field

only the value of the field when its selected

and what code did you use

define([], function(){ /** @NAPiVersion 2.0 @NScriptType ClientScript @NModuleScope Public */ function showMessage(context) { var fieldId = context.fieldId; var currentRecord = context.currentRecord; var lvtype = currentRecord.getValue({ fieldId: 'custrecordu_lvetype' }); if (lvtype == '1') { currentRecord.setValue({ fieldId: 'custrecordu_lvename', value: 'Annual Leave 30', ignoreFieldChange: false }); } alert(lvtype); } return { fieldChanged: showMessage }; });

you would get an alert every time any field is changed

alert is for my reference only whether it is getting any value or not?

as in its hard to tell what field is being set if you alert everything

ok..

otherwise, everything looks fine

yeah but im not retrieving the value from child record dropdown field..

not sure what you are describing

message has been deleted

you dont use getValue for a sublist field

i also tried getCurrentSublist

what was the code for that

var type = currentRecord.getCurrentSublistValue({ sublistId: '', fieldId: '' });

did you get the internal ids correct?

yeah it is correct

what are they

fieldId: 'custrecordu_lvetype'

and the sublistId?

sublistId : customrecord_leve_dtls

thats not the sublist id

thanks a lot ya!.. its working
