how can I get parent item from current item using suitescript 2.0

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

In SuiteScript 2.0, you can get the parent item from the current item by using the

record.load

method to load the current record and then use the

getValue

method to get the internal ID of the parent record. Here is a code snippet that demonstrates this:

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

// Load the current record
var currentRecord = record.load({
    type: 'your_record_type', 
    id: 'your_record_id'
});

// Get the internal ID of the parent record
var parentRecordId = currentRecord.getValue({
    fieldId: 'parent'
});

// Load the parent record
var parentRecord = record.load({
    type: 'your_record_type', 
    id: parentRecordId
});

In this code snippet, replace

'your_record_type'

with the record type you are working with and

'your_record_id'

with the ID of the current record. The

getValue

method is used to get the value of the 'parent' field, which is the internal ID of the parent record. This ID is then used to load the parent record. Please note that the 'parent' field might have a different name depending on the record type you are working with. You might need to check the record browser in NetSuite to find the correct field name. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
