how to get date format from created in custom record from custom segment

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To get the date format from the 'created' field in a custom record from a custom segment in NetSuite, you can use the

format

module in SuiteScript. This module provides methods to format and parse dates and numbers according to user preferences. Here's a sample code snippet that demonstrates how to use the

format

module to parse a date:

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

var createdDate = record.getValue({fieldId: 'created'}); // replace 'created' with your actual field id

var formattedDate = format.parse({
    value: createdDate,
    type: format.Type.DATE
});

In this code,

format.parse

is used to convert the date string into a JavaScript Date object according to the current user's date format preference. The

value

parameter is the date string you want to parse, and the

type

parameter is the type of date format you want to parse the date string into. Please note that the 'created' field should be a date field and it should be accessible for the script. If the field is not accessible, you might need to adjust the permissions or the field settings. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
