Request: nlapiSubmitField() support multiple records
Consider this real world code:
if(candidates) { // Matches were found, we need to loop through the results and // update the medical records status field for(var i = 0, len = candidates.length; i < len; i++) { nlapiSubmitField(REC_IDS.PHYSORDER, candidates[i].getId(), PHYSORDER_FLD.MED_REC_STATUS, MED_REC_STATUS.PEND_REV); } return true; } If nlapiSubmitField() supported multiple records that could be a much more efficient operation. Something like:
var ids = [1,2,3]; // note: I think it would be reasonable to require it be the // same field for all records to keep things simple var fields = ['flda', 'fldb']; // This would need to support values for each record and // the same value for all records to keep the syntax simple. // It could check for a single dimension array or value (same // value for all records) or a multi-dimensioned array for specific // value for each record var values = 'sameValueForAll'; // OR array syntax for single field, same value values = [
