Copy code
record.setValue("externalid", "113f7211-f504-4265-8a99-715436b1e131");
record.setValue("entity", "113f7211-f504-4265-8a99-715436b1e131");b

04/03/2020, 3:36 PMNS is a bit inconsistent with it's documentation here I guess. I've found that customform works over customformid, terms over termsid, subsidiary over subsidiaryid. are you sure it's entityid?

04/03/2020, 3:37 PMentityId in this instance just needs to be updated to used as a visual reference, it will be the same as externalid
