this is part of my script on a IF
``` var rec = scriptContext.newRecord;
       var salesorder = rec.getValue({ fieldId: 'createdfrom' });
        //var  addressdata =   rec.getValue({ fieldId: 'shipaddress' });
       var addresstext = rec.getValue({ fieldId: 'shippingaddress_text' });
       
         var  county=  rec.getValue({ fieldId: 'shipcountry' });
          var  state=  rec.getValue({ fieldId: 'shipcity' });
          var shipcompany=  rec.getValue({ fieldId: 'shipcompany' });
            var shipcity=  rec.getValue({ fieldId: 'shipcity' });
             var shipaddr1=  rec.getValue({ fieldId: 'shipaddr1' });
              var  shipphone=  rec.getValue({ fieldId: ' shipphone' });
           var shipaddr2=  rec.getValue({ fieldId: 'shipaddr2' });```

perhaps the address _subrecord_ is being used instead of these body level fields?

Unfortunately, that link is almost 4 years old :slightly_smiling_face:

my understanding is NS is trying to get everyone to use address subrecords and I think any straggling body fields are likely to go away in the future. Others may understand it differently.

this is from the xml verison of the page
```&lt;shipaddr1&gt;&lt;/shipaddr1&gt;
&lt;shipaddr2&gt; Apartment 606&lt;/shipaddr2&gt;
&lt;shipaddress&gt;Gant&lt;br&gt;6 street&lt;br&gt;Al Jaber Tower 4,  606&lt;br&gt;D &lt;br&gt;United Arab Emirates&lt;/shipaddress&gt;```

indeed, but using fields from the XML version of a page is totally at your own risk if those fields aren't documented.

I'd recommend you try `shippingaddress` as a subrecord

I might be missing something when you say sub-record you mean line field and not body fields?

the body field named `shippingaddress`, which is a subrecord

I have that  problem is it is a string of the whole address and the carrier needs me to split it up, I don't want to go down the route of  programing striping out the data

nay, you need to load `shippingaddress` as a subrecord. Maybe battk can point you to the subrecord apis.

Or you could use NFT where you don't think about the different apis - it makes data access uniform.

this is the error i get
```Field shipaddress is not a subrecord field```

"this drives me mad"  i took the field id from the page

<@U5375UUJ2> but thank you  for your help

yes, look to the records browser and `shippingaddress` is listed as a summary, but if you click that summary link it takes you to Address (subrecord)

unless you're using NFT in which case yes it returns a JS object (or rather an instance of a class)

on a different topic if an external  api returns a zpl data and i need the user to print it what is the best strategie

I've heard of that format but never worked with it myself.

you might want to ask on the NS Pros forum instead <https://netsuiteprofessionals.com/questions/>
