How to determine whether isPerson is set to Company or Individual on a supplier record depending on the form ID, prior to the record being loaded/initialised?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

In NetSuite, the

isPerson

field is a checkbox that determines whether a vendor is an individual or a company. However, this field is not directly accessible via SuiteScript. Instead, it is controlled by the

Type

field in the UI, which is a radio button. If the

Type

field is set to mandatory in the form, it can cause issues when trying to load and save the record via script. This is because the

Type

field (which points to

isindividual

) is not defined in SuiteScript. Here's an example of a script that would fail if the

Type

field is set to mandatory:

require(['N/record'], function (record) {

let vendor = record.load({
	type: 'vendor',
	id: '[YOUR VENDOR'S ID]',
	isDynamic: true
});
vendor.save({
	ignoreMandatoryFields: false,
	enableSourcing: true
});

})

This script would throw an error saying that

Type

(pointing at

isindividual

) is not defined. To determine whether

isPerson

is set to Company or Individual on a supplier record depending on the form ID, prior to the record being loaded/initialised, you would need to check the

Type

field in the UI. If the

Type

field is set to mandatory, you would need to set the

isindividual

field every time you load and save the record via script. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
