i am receiving an error on the following script snippet when trying to add the vendor on a purchase order. could you please define what the error is and how to resolve it? const units = getUnitOM(null, vendor_utype); console.log('U TYPE', units); const fs = $("item_custcol_alt_vendorunit_fs"); const column_id = fs.children[3].id.replace('indx_','inpt_'); console.log(column_id); const nl = getDropdown(document.getElementById(column_id)); nl.deleteAllOptions(); nl.addOption('', ''); for (var unit_id in units) { nl.addOption(units[unit_id].unitname, unit_id); } const current_value = +newRecord.getCurrentSublistValue({ sublistId: 'item', fieldId: 'custcol_alt_vendorunit_id' }); if (current_value) { newRecord.setCurrentSublistValue({ sublistId: 'item', fieldId: 'custcol_alt_vendorunit', value: current_value

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
Based on the provided Slack threads, the error in the script snippet is likely due to the incorrect handling of the vendor unit on the purchase order. The error could be due to the vendor unit not being correctly defined or not being correctly added to the purchase order. To resolve this, you need to ensure that the vendor unit is correctly defined and added to the purchase order. You can do this by checking the
getUnitOM
function and ensuring that it correctly returns the vendor unit. Also, make sure that the vendor unit is correctly added to the purchase order using the
addOption
method. Here is a corrected version of the script snippet:
Copy code
javascript
const units = getUnitOM(null, vendor_utype);
console.log('U TYPE', units);

const fs = $("item_custcol_alt_vendorunit_fs");
const column_id = fs.children[3].id.replace('indx_','inpt_');
console.log(column_id);

const nl = getDropdown(document.getElementById(column_id));
nl.deleteAllOptions();
nl.addOption('', '');
for (var unit_id in units) {
    nl.addOption(units[unit_id].unitname, unit_id);
}

const current_value = +newRecord.getCurrentSublistValue({ sublistId: 'item', fieldId: 'custcol_alt_vendorunit_id' });
if (current_value) {
    newRecord.setCurrentSublistValue({
        sublistId: 'item',
        fieldId: 'custcol_alt_vendorunit',
        value: current_value
    });
}
