Troubles with my "return" value
I'm attempting to do a very simple script to validate two fields prior to saving a customer/lead/prospect record. But when I put the code into the debugger, I end up receiving "unexpected error" invalid return. See below for code block.
{ var status = 14; var reason = nlapiGetFieldValue('custentity_reason_closed_field'); var dept = nlapiGetDepartment(); var primaryReason = nlapiGetFieldValue('custentity_primary_nr_reason'); var primaryReasonDetails = nlapiGetFieldValue('custentity_primary_nr_reason_det'); //status 14 is closed, and 29 is not renewed if ((status == '14' || status == '29') && (reason == null || reason == '')) { if (dept == 8 || dept == 10) { alert("Please enter a Reason Code for closing this record"); return false; //offending return statement } } return true; } 0
