Search Results returning null in scheduled script

edited Jan 8, 2020 3:36AM in SuiteCloud / Customization 2 comments

Hello,

I have a custom record saved search that I created and I'm trying to run via a scheduled script.  The problem is that the search result is returning null, even though when I run the search through the UI it has over 400 results.

Here is my code:

 var searchId = nlapiGetContext().getSetting('SCRIPT', 'custscript_vbsearchid');    var params = new Array();   params['custscript_vbsearchid'] = searchId;   var searchResults = nlapiSearchRecord('customrecord_pan_ib_child', searchId, null, null);   if(searchResults == null)   {    nlapiLogExecution('DEBUG','No IBCs found from search',searchId);    return;   }   for(var i=0; i < searchResults.length; i++) {    try {     


There is more code after the try, but my script is exiting and the Execution Log is showing 'No IBCs found from search'.  If I try searchResults.length, I get an error saying cannot get length from null.  I have triple checked the search ID to make sure I am running the right search, and it is correct.

Howdy, Stranger!
