hello. i have a suitelet that acts like a form. i need to run on external url. it has a client script that has an invoice lookup. but the client script doesn't have permission. is it possible to set a client script to run as admin? I've attached a small snippet of the look up. it runs on fieldChanged event

A client script running externally as admin would almost certainly result in a huge security hole. You need to create a server side script to return strictly controlled data (suitelet or SSP) and fetch with an ajax request from within the client.

Thanks Dominic, makes sense when looking at it that way. I'll do the validations maybe on the submit instead. Not as elegant as client side, but should work just fine.
