trying to set a custom list field on item records based on the value in the native
Class
field - the custom list values are identical to the text of the class values; however, I get an error when attempting to set the value via workflow. does anyone know if this is possible? trying to avoid creating a different action for each Class since there are 80 of them
the obvious script solution would be to use
nlapiSetFieldText
but trying to avoid scripts here if possible
and i don't want to / can't convert the custom list to a custom record in this instance, because it's from a bundle
guessing it is expecting an ID instead of a text value in the workflow, don't imagine there's a way around that
k
Is the custom list field on the class?
I.e. Class 1 is always "field x"
You could add a custom field to your class record
and then you should be able to set it that way via class assigned at the line with workflow
a
custom list field is on item record
k
Why not just use the class field on the item?
a
it is a Vertex Product Class field, values are from a list
i guess the Vertex field drives customization
k
Ok - so you are using "class" from NetSuite to set Product class in vertex field
a
ya
k
Then you should be able to custom field the vertex class on the class in netsuite
a
ah
good call
yeah that should work!
