Column types invalid on nlobjList addColumn

edited Dec 2, 2019 6:06PM in SuiteCloud / Customization 8 comments

I'm doing a search that contains results from list/record fields and applying them to an nlobjList.

For the method addColumn(name,type,label,align), if I apply the type 'select', it gives me an error. If I change the type to 'text', it returns a value, but unfortuantely returns the value (integer) of the list/record and not the text (as is done in a typical UI search).

How do you get the result to return the text of the list/record column? Is there another name to be used in 'type' for list/record columns?

Help docs would indicate that is should be 'select' based on both other methods that use a 'type' parameter and in the SuiteScript Records Browser which defines the column as a 'select'.

Howdy, Stranger!
