Hi all, I encountered a strange behavior, when trying to get the value of a checkbox: 'ELIMINATE INTERCOMPANY TRANSACTIONS' in the account record.
`isInterCompanyAccountType = nlapiLookupField('account', '191', 'eliminate');`
I get an error: ' An nlobjSearchColumn contains an invalid column, or is not in proper syntax: eliminate.'

Any ideas?

Is checkBox not searchable?
because if I load the record and use getFieldValue I'm fine, but I don't want to use loadRec

<@U049USY6NSG> Some fields are not columns available to be returned in a search, you could try to use the N/query module and you may be able to access that field with that.
