11/03/2020, 5:26 AMbasically what the error says
battk
11/03/2020, 5:26 AMnetsuite allows you to setValue or setText to set field values
c
Craig
11/03/2020, 5:27 AMThe script does NOT use setValue so I assume something before my script has done that
b
battk
11/03/2020, 5:27 AMyou must use the matching getValue or getText to get that value
c
Craig
11/03/2020, 5:27 AM Copy code
var modelName = newRecord.getText('custitem_ms_model_name');
if (modelName) {
modelName = modelName.replace(/\s+/g, '-').toLowerCase();
}Craig
11/03/2020, 5:28 AM Copy code
newRecord.setText({
fieldId: 'custitem_additional_product_tags',
text: modelName
});b
battk
11/03/2020, 5:28 AMthats basically the most common cause
battk
11/03/2020, 5:28 AMcustitem_ms_model_namec
Craig
11/03/2020, 5:29 AMWon't that get the internal ID of the list item?
b
battk
11/03/2020, 5:29 AMyup
c
Craig
11/03/2020, 5:29 AMSo I can't do my regex on that so I still need the text value
b
battk
11/03/2020, 5:29 AMlookup its value
c
Craig
11/03/2020, 5:30 AMI'll do a search
b
battk
11/03/2020, 5:30 AMoccasionally you can do a suitebulder solution and have a text field that sources its value
c
Craig
11/03/2020, 5:30 AMNot clear why this is needed but that's an implementation detail of SS
b
battk
11/03/2020, 5:31 AMits optimization related
c
Craig
11/03/2020, 5:31 AMFair enough.
b
battk
11/03/2020, 5:32 AMnetsuite doesnt need to lookup the matching text
c
Craig
11/03/2020, 5:32 AMWhat's the point of getText then?
Craig
11/03/2020, 5:32 AMIf I can't use it in this context
b
battk
11/03/2020, 5:34 AMshared model, the record.Record object is used in places other than user event scripts
battk
11/03/2020, 5:34 AMits better than ss1, which would return nothing and no error
battk
11/03/2020, 5:41 AMmaybe i misremembered the ss1 thing
r

11/03/2020, 6:34 AMss1 if you do a getText, you get the Text

11/03/2020, 7:53 AMWhat makes it worse is that you can trip on this problem from a script that’s fired previous to the one you’re working on. If you don’t know about this error, that can make things a little confusing!
