SAXException: Invalid type

edited Dec 2, 2019 3:03PM in SuiteCloud / Customization 1 comment

Hey everyone -

I generated a proxy class for the Netsuite using the .NET wsdl.exe utility, and based it on the WSDL at this location (https://webservices.sandbox.netsuite.com/wsdl/v2011_1_0/netsuite.wsdl)

I am trying to perform a very basic customer update, and am being returned with this error:

org.xml.sax.SAXException: Invalid type: {urn:relationships_2011_1.lists.webservices.netsuite.com}Customer

  Dim objCustomer As New Customer()                objCustomer.externalId = 100              objCustomer.companyName = "Demo Company"              objCustomer.email = "test@company.com"              objCustomer.password = "XXXXXXXXX"                ' Update custom fields for customer record              Dim arCustomFields As New ArrayList()                Dim fldUsername As New StringCustomFieldRef              fldUsername.internalId = "custentity_member_id"              fldUsername.value = "username"              arCustomFields.Add(fldUsername)                Dim fldVIP As New BooleanCustomFieldRef              fldVIP.internalId = "custentityvip"              fldVIP.value = true              arCustomFields.Add(fldVIP)                objCustomer.customFieldList = arCustomFields.ToArray(GetType(CustomFieldRef))              Dim wr As WriteResponse = objNs.Service.add(objCustomer)              If wr.status.isSuccess Then                  Response.Write("Record updated successfully " & CType(wr.baseRef, RecordRef).externalId)              Else                  Response.Write("Record updated successfully " & CType(wr.baseRef, RecordRef).externalId)              End If

Howdy, Stranger!
