Updating inactive contact produces error

edited Dec 2, 2019 3:04PM in SuiteCloud / Customization 1 comment

Hi guys and gals,

I'm writing a custom authentication system for a SharePoint based website. The system is designed to create a new NetSuite contact, setting 'isinactive' as TRUE, when someone registers with our website.

I then send an email to the person registering, giving them a link to click so that they can activate their new website account. A fairly standard concept.

In my 'activeuser.aspx' codebehind (C#), I'm trying to update a contact record to change isinactive to be FALSE, but I get the following WriteResponse status.statusDetail.message

You do not have permissions to set a value for element lastmodifieddate due to one of the following reasons: 1) The field is read-only; 2) An associated feature is disabled; 3) The field is available either when a record is created or updated, but not in both cases.

Howdy, Stranger!
