Updating Shipping and Handling costs

edited May 28, 2020 8:57PM in SuiteCloud / Customization 1 comment

Hi Terry / All,

We are trying to update shipping cost , handling cost (storage cost + pick ,pack  charges of a 3PL environment) to NetSuite using webservices, 
but we are getting  two issues when we are trying to update these(shipping cost , handling cost ) charges to NetSuite.
1.  Code     :   INSUFFICIENT_PERMISSION 
     Description : You do not have permissions to set a value for element handling cost due to one of the following reasons: 1) The field is read-only; 2) An associated feature is disabled; 3) The field is available either when a record is created or updated, but not in both cases.
2.  If I try to update only shipping cost(with out handling cost)  the given  code is running successfully. But shipping cost is not getting updated for that SalesOrder.I am able to update shipping cost in NetSuite UI.

Howdy, Stranger!
