NetSuite sublist

Question

I am having a problem finding out an id of a sublist. I am using SuiteScript 1.0. For instance, I need to list the components of an assembly item record, how do I find out the list id and the "type and field name to use in the nlapiGetCurrentLineItemValue or nlapiGetCurrentLineItemValue methods. What I am looking for is how now and in the future when presented with a sublist, do I go about finding the ids of the objects needed. I have internal ids turned on but that does not help in the sublist view. What is the best way to get this information when I need it? thanks for any help you may give.

Answer 1

You can use nlapiGetAllLineItems() to get an array of all the sublists. You may need to load the record first and do record.getAllLineItems()

Answer 2

I have found the most useful method for figuring out internalids is to run nlapiLoadRecord(..) in your Browser Console and examine the resulting object. Another trick is the add &xml=T to the end of the URL of the record, which displays the record in XML format. NetSuite also documents most of the internalids in the Records Browser.

Answer 3

In this case you use console in Google Chrome. Open the Specific Assembly Item Record page and Press F12 and select console.After give following code

 nlapiLoadRecord('assemblyitem', 90088(id for specific record));

after show result in console. Select linefields and Item. Now it show the fields of sublist. If You have any doubt let me know.
