I'm trying to create a record reference for the subsidiary.  Can somebody tell me why result[0].values is undefined?  I'm seeing the following JSON for result[0], `{"recordType":"subsidiary","id":"3","values":{"internalId":[{"value":"3","text":"3"}],"externalId":[]}}`    I'm getting the following error from the function; TypeError Cannot read property 'internalId' of undefined

If I take the JSON outside of NetSuite, I'm able to access the internalId without a problem.

on a technical level, the object you are logging is not the same object you are using

suitescript 2.0 makes extensive use of <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/JSON/stringify#toJSON_behavior|toJSON>, since all the logging methods stringify objects, the object logged is different than the object you are working with

you are supposed to use <https://system.netsuite.com/app/help/helpcenter.nl?fid=section_46917053222.html|Result.getValue> to get values out of search results

Ahh, ok.  Thank you for the feedback.

So you are saying for logging, just log result[0] and don't perform the stringify?

if for some reason you want to rely on the undocumented json form, you can directly use .toJSON on your search results

logging result[0] is equivalent to logging JSON.stringify(result[0)
