Hello. I tried to change subsidiary and location in Suitescript using

record.submitfields

but it shows me

This customer record -1 is not valid. Please create the customer first.

But the invoice already has customer configured. Could someone help me how to solve this issue please? I tried

ignoreMandatoryFields:true

but it didn't work

Paste some code.

I'm pretty sure when you change the subsidiary it blanks out the customer field, I would also re-set the customer field on the invoice before saving.

Since you're using

record.submitFields()

, this is trying to perform an

XEDIT

on the transaction, not a regular

EDIT

. In an

XEDIT

event, the

newRecord

object doesn't have access to all of the fields. It sounds like you have another user event script that is expecting an

EDIT

event but since it doesn't have all of the fields, it thinks the customer field is not populated. By default, the

newRecord

object in an

XEDIT

event only contains the values that were updated. It doesn't have all the values on the record itself.

XEDIT aside; it’s still not going to work changing the subsidiary on an existing invoice right?

You may be able to change the subsidiary on a transaction if you have the "multi subsidiary customer" feature enabled. Not sure, through. I don't have access to an account with that feature enabled.

You can't change the subsidiary in an existing transaction except, I think, for Journal Entries. But general rule is no.
