Fill a custom field in SalesOrder through SOAP
I have a custom field (list) on the SalesOrder with id custfield34 (example name).
When I submit the order through SOAP, I want to set this field to a certain value. When I use
<custfield34 xsi:type="platformCore:RecordRef" internalId="4"/>
I get the error "custfield34 not found on SalesOrder".
Now, I've read somewhere that custom fields need to be treated as a group (just like itemList).. but how does this work? Could you give an example on how to add the above custom field value to the SO?
