How do I get the internal ID of a custom record?
I'm creating a search using the NetSuite web service. I'm not referencing a saved search, but rather I'm building the criteria and columns in my code.
I'm stumbling on getting the internal ID of each custom record. I've tried adding to the customFieldList, but I realize now that the internal ID isn't a custom field, so how do you do it?
here's my code that sets up the criteria and the column.. can anyone help me out with getting the internal ID?
01: // set search objects 02: CustomRecordSearch crs = new CustomRecordSearch(); 03: CustomRecordSearchAdvanced crsa = new CustomRecordSearchAdvanced(); 04: CustomRecordSearchBasic crsb = new CustomRecordSearchBasic(); 05: CustomRecordSearchRow crsr = new CustomRecordSearchRow(); 06: CustomRecordSearchRowBasic crsrb = new CustomRecordSearchRowBasic(); 07: RecordRef rr = new RecordRef(); 08: 09: // set search type 10: rr.internalId = "1"; 11: rr.type = RecordType.customRecord; 12: 13: // set criteria 14: crsb.customFieldList = new SearchBooleanCustomField[1]; 15: 16: crsb.customFieldList[0] = new SearchBooleanCustomField(); 17: ((SearchBooleanCustomField)crsb.customFieldList[0]).internalId = "custrecordcommunity_ssp"; 18: ((SearchBooleanCustomField)crsb.customFieldList[0]).searchValue = true; 19: ((SearchBooleanCustomField)crsb.customFieldList[0]).searchValueSpecified = true; 20: 21: crs.basic = crsb; 22: 23: // set columns 24: crsrb.customFieldList = new SearchColumnCustomField[2]; 25: 26:
