is the 'display name' of an item available in SuiteScript when loading an invoice? if so, what is the field called?

or do i need to have a custom field that sources it?

```var itemRecord = record.load({
		type: record.Type.INVOICE,
		id: recordID
	});
	
var sublistFieldValue = itemRecord.getSublistValue({
		sublistId: 'item',
		fieldId: 'item_display',
		line: 1
	});```

This is what i tried but it shows the normal item name. instead of the display name field:

i ended up creating a custom field which sources the display name on the invoice line and reference that.

Can't tell, as your field descriptions differ from ours, but that may be salesdescription, which doesn't appear to be directly accessible. I'd have got the 'item' value from the sublist and done a search.lookupFields(), but the custom field route is equally valid and probably consumes less governance.
