I got error on runtime.getCurrentUser().department;, what the problem

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

The error you're encountering with

runtime.getCurrentUser().department;

could be due to a few reasons: 1. The

department

field is not set for the current user. You can check this by navigating to the user's record in NetSuite and ensuring that the department field is populated. 2. The

department

field is not accessible due to permissions. The role of the user running the script might not have the necessary permissions to view the department field. You can check this by going to Setup > Users/Roles > Manage Roles > [Select Role] > Permissions > Lists. Make sure the 'Department' permission is set to at least 'View'. 3. The

department

field is not a direct property of the user object returned by

runtime.getCurrentUser()

. If this is the case, you might need to use a

lookup

function to get the department of the current user. Here is a sample code snippet:

javascript
var userObj = runtime.getCurrentUser();
var department = search.lookupFields({
    type: search.Type.EMPLOYEE,
    id: userObj.id,
    columns: ['department']
});

Remember to replace 'department' with the actual internal id of the department field if it's different. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
