Get the item type
Dear all,
In a transaction(e.g. sales order), we have items. Some time we will need to get some fields in that item record to be used in our script calculation.
But you know, there are so many item types.
var itemId = SOrecord.getLineItemValue('item','item',1);
var itemrecord = nlapiLoadRecord('inventoryitem',itemId);
There are not every time the item are inventory part item. So if sometime the item is not inventory item, then error will come. I know I can prevent to load the record if it is not a inventory item.
What I want to know is, is there anyway that we can get the exact name of the item type that can be used in the nlapiLoadRecord(type,ID) function?
