/**
 * Hi All, I have encountered a custom record as a sublist issue:
 * I have create a custom record with a customer field (internal id is custrecord_gw_csrc_cust),
 * I checked "record is parent" in the customer field setting and I have successfully
 * showing the custom record in CUSTOMER record.
 * However, when I run the following code in debugger, I failed to get line count of the sublist from customer record.
 *
 * I tried with contact sublist and it's success
 * Then I create a saved search that search for the custom record,
 * and then create a custom sublist that uses the saved search I just created.
 * The sublist is showing in customer record as well but I still can't get line count.
 *
 * Did I miss anything in settings, did I do anything incorrectly or (I am suspecting) is this a bug?

  // It's a custom sublist source from a saved search of "Customer Sales Return Configuration"

This is my customer record screen shot that shows the count should be 2

did you setup the custom record to
Allow Child Record Editing
if you dont, then its a static list type sublist that doesnt support suitescript

I didn’t, I just checked it and I can get the correct count. Thank you!!
