Is there a way to debug a script using the Debugger and via CSV execution context? I have an issue where the user event works fine in the UI, but throws an error when updating a record via CSV

or <https://system.na0.netsuite.com/app/help/helpcenter.nl?fid=chapter_N2953757.html|Inline Editing and SuiteScript>

I don’t actually get any permission error but straight up a Suitescript error. The debugger doesn’t fire when i do my CSV update. It just say in Waiting for Action

It’s a suitescript error that my script throws. Like invalid value 123 for field “entity”

but it happens only via CSV and via the UI it works fine

you wont get anything from the debugger, it only runs for events that you trigger

That’s what i thought. But user event scripts are triggered by the CSV context so that’s a shame that we cannot appropriately debug it :disappointed:

invalid values for one user and not the other usually comes down to classification

I mean I’m the one processing both scenarios.

Run the script via edit/save
Run the CSV just to trigger the script

so make sure you are validating against the ui using the same role/user used for the csv import

you may also just want to make the user event run as administrator to rule out role related issues

although you usually wouldnt want to keep it that way

Yeah, sadly the script is also already executing as Administrator. Might be a defect because it’s for creating an Advanced Interco JE
