How to search UnitsType / UOM (not Base Units) in SuiteScript 2.0?
Long story short, I'm being given the internal id for a unit of measure (unitstype) from a saved search that's been provided to me. I need to take that and match it to a base unit and conversion rate. What's the simplest way to do so?
search.create({ "type": "unitstype", "columns": ["internalid", "name", "unitname", "conversionrate", "baseunit"] });...returns everything, units, base units, the works! Great, right? But the given internal id of each unit is not the actual internal id, but rather the internal id of its base unit. Close but no cigar. Also unexpected and misleading.
Ok, how about instead searching directly for the internal id I've been given?
