what does this error code mean "You cannot add an item and purchase order combination that does not exist to a Vendor Bill"

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

The error message "You cannot add an item and purchase order combination that does not exist to a Vendor Bill" typically indicates that the system is unable to find a matching item and purchase order combination that you are trying to add to a Vendor Bill. This could be due to several reasons: 1. The item you are trying to add to the Vendor Bill does not exist in the Purchase Order you are referencing. Make sure that the item you are trying to add is included in the Purchase Order. 2. The Purchase Order you are referencing does not exist or is not in the correct status. Ensure that the Purchase Order is in a status that allows it to be billed (e.g., Pending Billing). 3. There could be a mismatch in the vendor or currency between the Purchase Order and the Vendor Bill. NetSuite does not allow adding multiple vendors and/or currencies to a single Vendor Bill. 4. If you are using SuiteScript to automate this process, there could be an issue with the code. For example, the code might be trying to add an item to a Vendor Bill before it has been added to the Purchase Order. Here is a sample code snippet that demonstrates how to create a Vendor Bill from a Purchase Order using SuiteScript:

javascript
var vendorBill = recordModule.create({
    type: recordModule.Type.VENDOR_BILL,
    isDynamic: true,
    defaultValues: {
        entity: supplierId
    }
});
vendorBill.selectNewLine('item');
vendorBill.setCurrentSublistValue('item', 'orderdoc', poId);
vendorBill.setCurrentSublistValue('item', 'orderline', poLineId);
                
vendorBill.commitLine('item');
vendorBill.save({
    enableSourcing: false,
    ignoreMandatoryFields: true
});

In this code,

supplierId

,

poId

, and

poLineId

should be the internal IDs of the supplier, Purchase Order, and Purchase Order line respectively. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
