Getting error trying to update Location objects
I've got several Location records in NetSuite that I am trying to link to external ids. All I'm doing is calling the setExternalId method on the Location instances, but NetSuite is giving me the following error:
[Code=INSUFFICIENT_PERMISSION] You do not have permissions to set a value for element addrtext 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.
I can circumvent this error if I call setOverride(true) on the Location instance, but then the carriage returns in the addrText field get replaced with break tags (<br>).
