Record.setCurrentSublistValue(options)

Method Description

Sets the value for the field in the currently selected line. (dynamic mode only — see SuiteScript 2.x Standard and Dynamic Modes)

When working in standard mode, set a sublist field using Record.setSublistValue(options).

Important:

When you edit a sublist line with SuiteScript, it triggers an internal validation of the sublist line. If the line validation fails, the script also fails. For example, if your script edits a closed catch up period, the validation fails and prevents SuiteScript from editing the closed catch up period.

Sets a numeric value for rate and ratehighprecision fields.

Returns

record.Record

Parameter

Type

Required / Optional

Description

Since

options.sublistId

string

required

The internal ID of the sublist.

This value is displayed in the Records Browser. For more information, see Working with the SuiteScript Records Browser.

2015.2

options.fieldId

string

required

The internal ID of a standard or custom sublist field.

See, Finding Internal IDs of Record Fields.

2015.2

options.value

number | Date | string | array | boolean

required

The value to set the field to.

The value type must correspond to the field type being set. For example:

  • Text, Radio and Select fields accept string values.

  • Checkbox fields accept boolean values.

  • Date and DateTime fields accept Date values.

  • Integer, Float, Currency and Percent fields accept number values.

Note:

There may be a few exceptions to value and field type matching in SuiteScript. For example, the Role field on the Resource tab of project records is a multi-select field. However, in SuiteScript, this field can only accept one internal ID and does not accept an array of values. The only workaround to select multiple values for this field is to use the NetSuite UI.

2015.2

options.ignoreFieldChange

boolean

optional

If set to true, the field change and the secondary event is ignored.

By default, this value is false.

2015.2

options.forceSyncSourcing

boolean

optional

Indicates whether to perform field sourcing synchronously.

This parameter can be used to alleviate a timing situation that may occur in some browsers when fields are sourced. For some browsers, some APIs are triggered without waiting for the field sourcing to complete which could cause incorrect results.

If set to true, sources dependent field information for empty fields synchronously.

Defaults to false – dependent field values are not sourced synchronously.
