Using suitescript how do I assign a role to an employee

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To assign a role to an employee using SuiteScript, you can use the

N/record

module to load the employee record, then use the

setValue

method to set the role. Here is a sample code snippet:

javascript
var record = require('N/record');

var employeeRecord = record.load({
    type: record.Type.EMPLOYEE,
    id: 'EMPLOYEE_ID'
});

employeeRecord.setValue({
    fieldId: 'role',
    value: 'ROLE_ID'
});

var recordId = employeeRecord.save({
    enableSourcing: true,
    ignoreMandatoryFields: true
});

Please replace

'EMPLOYEE_ID'

and

'ROLE_ID'

with the actual ID of the employee and the role respectively. However, please note that client scripts will always use the Role of the current user. If you need part of the logic to run with admin roles, you will need to put that logic in a Suitelet and call that from your client script. Also, if you want to programmatically remove roles from employees after a set date, you might need to create a scheduled script that runs periodically to check the set date and remove the role accordingly. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
