Set Text from Department Id
I'm creating a suitelet and I need to setDefaultValue to the department. I know how to get the department Id from the context object via:
var context = nlapiGetContext(); var departmentId = context.getDepartment(); var fldDepartment = form.addField('custpage_department', 'text', 'Department:'); fldDepartment.setDefaultValue(departmentId);How can I set the field value to the text that is associated with the department Id?
fldDepartment.setDefaultValue(departmentText);
