SuiteScript: Invalid date value (must be MM/DD/YYYY) error
I am relatively new to SuiteScript. When attempting to set the date value, the error "Invalid date value (must be MM/DD/YYYY)" is generated. See code below.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
define(['N/record', 'N/format'], function(record, format) {
function myBeforeSubmit(scriptContext) {
var currentDate = new Date();
var invoiceDueDate = new Date(currentDate.setDate(currentDate.getDate() + 10));
log.debug('currentDate + 10', invoiceDueDate);//"2023-07-31T03:48:18.984Z"
var date = format.format({value: invoiceDueDate, type: format.Type.DATE} );
log.debug('currentDate + 10 date formated - date', date);//07/31/2023
scriptContext.newRecord.setValue({fieldId: 'duedate', value: date}); // Invalid date value (must be MM/DD/YYYY)
}
return { beforeSubmit: myBeforeSubmit };
