Can we remove option of a list of a native dropdown filed of record?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

Based on the conversations, it seems that it is not directly possible to remove options from a native dropdown list of a record in NetSuite. The

-New-

option in a dropdown list appears when the user has access to create entries for that list, and it cannot be removed without changing the user's permissions. However, there are a few workarounds suggested: 1. One way is to create a dummy list/record field in User Event beforeLoad with all the options, then commit the user selection back to the actual field in beforeSubmit. This method involves a significant amount of work and is not recommended for minor requests. 2. Another approach is to hide/disable the standard field and add your own scripted field that you can add or remove options from. This allows you to control the options that appear in the dropdown list. 3. If the issue is with a specific user, you could add a global permission to their employee record for that record type and set it to

view

. This way, you're not changing the permission for all users with that role. 4. From a permissions perspective, you can control which subsidiaries are visible to certain roles. This could be a solution if the users/roles align with what you need. 5. Another potential solution is to display a custom field with limited options and populate the real subsidiary field based on their selection. Remember, these are workarounds and may not be suitable for all situations. Always consider the impact on your system and users before implementing changes. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
