Is it possible to empty/deselect fields with one command? or we need to know the field type first?

I have tried null and empty string but it didn't work.
I want to set date, checkbox, radio, text, textarea and multiselect to empty or unselect.

setting a field value to `null` should clear a field for SuiteScript 2.x

<@U5375UUJ2> It will not work for some fields

at least in client script I have tried and it didn't work.

<@U5375UUJ2> this is the error
```You have entered an Invalid Field Value null```

Ah, I've used that technique mostly in server scripts. Client scripts seem to be more fragile in general.

So what do you suggest? checking the field type?

<@U5375UUJ2> and if that's the solution how many type do we need to check? is it like setting different value for each type?

tis possible Client script is old-school (last I checked some of the so-called SS2.X apis client side were actually just passthrough calls to SS1 client side.

empty string `''` was used often in SS 1.x but it sounds like you've already tried that.
