Line Item Won't Add After Validation
I've written a script to validate line items based on the value of a custom field within the main tab of a sales order record. The validation works when the item is listed in the code. However, when an item should be able to be added, nothing happens. I click the add button in the UI and a new line item is not activated on the sales order.
I'm thinking maybe my return statements are not correct somehow? Any help is appreciated
Here is my code:
function validateLine_rec() { var stRecord = nlapiGetRecordType(); if (stRecord == 'salesorder') { var stProgram = nlapiGetFieldValue('custbody64'); var stItemId = nlapiGetCurrentLineItemValue('item', 'item'); if (stProgram == '2') { if (stItemId == '24' || stItemId == '25' || stItemId == '26') { alert('You can not use this item for Classbook Orders'); alert('stProgram = ' + stProgram); alert('stItemId = ' + stItemId); return false; } return true; } } } 0
