03/19/2020, 1:21 AMwow, just from today even? cool. Not working for me, though. I’ll test again.
ec
03/19/2020, 1:24 AMrequire([‘N/record’], function(record) {
var REC = record.load({ type: record.Type.WORK_ORDER, id: 387363 });
REC.setValue({ fieldId: ‘startdate’, value: null });
REC.save();
});
Or,
REC.setText
both don’t work. both with null or ‘’

03/19/2020, 1:28 AMthere is actual functionality for workorders around the startdate
battk
03/19/2020, 1:29 AMim not sure that you can blank it out

03/19/2020, 1:29 AMreally? in UI I can set the enddate and clear the startdate and it calculates

03/19/2020, 1:31 AMprobably that same process is preventing you from nulling its value
battk
03/19/2020, 1:32 AMthere is an actualproductionstartdate field, and a isactualprodstartdateenteredmanually checkbox to go with it

ec
03/19/2020, 1:35 AMWhat do those do? And where do you see that? And how can I accomplish the same as clearing the startdate in the UI?
ec
03/19/2020, 1:35 AMthanks @battk for all your replies all the time by the way!! you’re a real “slacker”

03/19/2020, 1:42 AMmight be feature dependent

03/19/2020, 1:46 AMAha. I'll look into it. I want to have NS calculate the start date backwards from the end date but if I have a value in the start date it keeps it regardless
