AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
The error message "An nlobjSearchColumn contains an invalid column, or is not in proper syntax: {column_name}" typically occurs when you are trying to access a field that does not exist, or the syntax used to access the field is incorrect. This can happen in several scenarios: 1. The field has been deleted or renamed, but the script or saved search is still trying to access it using the old name. In this case, you need to update your script or saved search to reflect the new field name or remove the reference to the deleted field. 2. The field is not accessible via SuiteScript or Saved Search. Not all fields are accessible this way. You can check the NetSuite Records Browser to see if the field is scriptable and searchable. 3. The syntax used to access the field is incorrect. Make sure you are using the correct syntax for the API you are using. For example, in SuiteScript 1.0, you would use
nlapiSearchRecord
, while in SuiteScript 2.0, you would use
search.create
. Here is an example of how to create a search column in SuiteScript 2.0:
Copy code
javascript
var searchColumn = search.createColumn({
    name: 'custrecord_mro_pricing_pm_dfltpricelevel'
});
If you are still encountering the error after checking these scenarios, there may be a deeper issue that requires further investigation. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
