RE: How to hide sublist fields in beforeload in SuiteScript 2.0 of current record?
Answered
The below code gives the following error : ‘
| TypeError: Cannot find function updateDisplayType in object standard record. |
define(['N/record', 'N/log', 'N/search', 'N/task', 'N/ui/serverWidget'],
function(record, log, search, task, serverWidget) {
function beforeLoad(scriptContext) {
log.audit('In before laod UE');
if (scriptContext.type == 'create' || scriptContext.type == 'copy') {
var currentRecord = scriptContext.newRecord;
var deliItem = currentRecord.setSublistValue({
sublistId: 'recmachcustrecord_rent_rod_delivery_note',
fieldId: 'custrecord_rent_rod_delivered_item',
line: 0,
value: 400
});
deliItem.updateDisplayType({
displayType: serverWidget.FieldDisplayType.HIDDEN
});
}
}
return {
beforeLoad: beforeLoad
};
});
Best answer
You are confusing the record and form objects. Record.setSublistValue returns a record.Record, which does not have a updateDisplayType method.
Use scriptContext.form to access the serverWidget.Form, then get the serverWidget.Sublist, then get the serverWidget.Field. Then you can use updateDisplayType on the Field.
