Detecting Sales Rep field changed in Before Submit
I've trying to find a way to detect a change in the Sales Rep field in a Before Submit script. This seems straight forward, but we are using Sales Teams. Specifically, I'd like to know the primary sales rep before and after the submit.
I tried variations of the following but it doesn't seem to work:
var oldRecord = nlapiGetOldRecord();
var newRecord = nlapiGetNewRecord();
var oldSalesRep = oldRecord.getFieldValue('salesrep');
var newSalesRep = newRecord.getFieldValue('salesrep');
No matter what I do, the old and new sales rep vars are always the same value. Is this a bug, as designed, or otherwise. Also, are there other ways of getting the old and new value for a Primary Sales Rep on a Customer record.
