nlapiSearchRecord on Custom Record no results validation
Hi Everyone,
I'm trying to triger validation based on whether my nlapisearchrecord produces results. If there are results, I want my form to finish the save. If there are no results, I want my form to alert the user that theres an error.
Please help me with my code because I've been staring at it for hours and can't see it. :h_a_w:
var filters = new Array();
filters[0] = new nlobjSearchFilter('custrecord', null, 'anyof', variable);
var columns = new Array();
columns[0] = new nlobjSearchColumn('custrecord');
var results = nlapiSearchRecord('customrecord', null, filters, columns);
if (typeof results == 'object') {
alert('Please enter the information);
return false;
