how do I clear (blank) a field of type DATE?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To clear a date field in NetSuite, you can set the field value to

null

. This can be done using SuiteScript. Here is an example:

javascript
record.setValue({
    fieldId: 'your_date_field_id',
    value: null
});

In this example, replace

'your_date_field_id'

with the actual ID of your date field. This will set the field value to

null

, effectively clearing it. Please note that this will only work if the field is not mandatory. If the field is mandatory, you will not be able to clear it and will need to set a valid date 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. ******
