Thank you to everyone for your passion, collaboration, and support. Here’s to building an even stronger community together in the year ahead!
Season’s greetings to you and yours! As we head into the holidays (December 24 – January 4), we want to take a moment to celebrate the incredible strength and collaboration within our community. Even during the break, you can continue to benefit from connecting with peers, searching related threads, posting your questions, and marking helpful replies as “Accepted” in the Support Community.

"When a record is created or updated, but not in both cases"
I imagine that everyone has seen a permissions error before:
[INDENT]You do not have permissions to set a value for element custentitypi_url 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.[/INDENT]
Could someone tell me how I can tell if condition "3" is true? I'm fairly certain 1 and 2 are false.
I'm trying to set a custom field on a contact, and I don't see anything in the Netsuite customization interface that specifies if a field should be settable on create vs update. I'm using the SOAP API, and have successfully set a custom field in one Netsuite account, but am seeing this error in a second account (that had some customization done by a third party during implementation). My best guess is that the forms or entities are misconfigured somehow.
