what does nlapiFieldChanged function do

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

The

nlapiFieldChanged

function is a client-side SuiteScript function in NetSuite that is used to capture and handle changes made to specific fields on a record form. This function is triggered whenever a field value is changed and the field loses focus. It is typically used in client scripts to perform certain actions or validations when a field value is changed. Here is a basic example of how it can be used:

javascript
function fieldChanged(type, name, linenum){
   if(name == 'custbody_some_custom_field'){
      var fieldValue = nlapiGetFieldValue('custbody_some_custom_field');
      // Perform some action based on the new field value
   }
}

In this example, the

nlapiFieldChanged

function is used to monitor changes to a custom field with the id 'custbody_some_custom_field'. When the value of this field changes, the new value is retrieved using the

nlapiGetFieldValue

function and some action is performed based on this new value. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
