getFieldValue for 'hours' cuts off the decimals

edited Jan 8, 2020 2:24AM in SuiteCloud / Customization 3 comments

Hello!!  Im back with another scripting problem

On the Time Tracking form, I have a serverscript which gets the value of 'hours' and updates a "Total time spent" field on the job record accordingly.  The issue is that getFieldValue cuts off the decimals - e.g 1:30 returns 1 instead of 1.5 in my code below:
...
var additional_hrs = parseFloat(newRecord.getFieldValue('hours'));
...

Any idea where I'm going wrong?

Thanks .. Srilatha

Howdy, Stranger!
