Is it possible to show the actual role used by the user who triggered the suitelet in the system notes? Use case: When a user clicks the Reject button on a journal entry, the user is routed to the Rejection Reason custom record. Once saved, a suitelet is triggered to copy the rejection notes from the custom record to the journal entry. When we look at the system information of the journal, it doesn't show the actual user and/or role used.

dont have the documentation in front of me but its available as part of the

n/runtime

module I believe something like

runtime.user.role

but there may be an api call to get to it not just a simple reference like above, sorry i don't remember

No worries. Thanks for the insights though

// Add additional code
...
var userObj = runtime.getCurrentUser();
log.debug('Internal ID of current user role: ' + userObj.role);
...
// Add additional code

Yeah, that's what we do now. Store it in custom fields. Would like to stop doing that and store it in the native system info if possible

i mean i guess you could create a custom field and set the role to the current users role whenever its modified?
