Help!! Can't delete activities

edited Jan 8, 2020 2:22AM in SuiteCloud / Customization 2 comments

Hi all,

For some stupid reason my server script to create new task upon a closure of an opportunity has been executed unintentionally due to a mass update of some opportunities. This has resulted in about 3300 extra tasks being automatically created.
I have create a scheduled server script to do a mass delete on these tasks. Please refer to the code below:

function deletetasks()
{
var searchresults = nlapiSearchRecord('activity', 17, null, null);
for (var h = 0; searchresults != null && h < searchresults.length && h < 500; h++)
{
  var searchresult = searchresults[h];
 
  nlapiDeleteRecord(searchresults[h].getRecordType(), searchresults[h].getId());
}
}

When I attempt to run this script I get the following message:

Howdy, Stranger!
