weightUnits in Inventory items !

edited Dec 2, 2019 3:12PM in SuiteCloud / Customization

Hi.

I got this error message when i try to add an inventory item via web service.

"You do not have permissions to set a value for element weightunits 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."

Netsuite has weightUnit and what is weightUnits for ?
What wrong with the code below, weightUnits type is string ?

String iwus = "kgs";
gItem.weight = 1.25;
gItem.weightUnit = ItemWeightUnit._kg;
gItem.weightUnits = iwus;

Thanks.

Howdy, Stranger!
