How to auto generate customRecordId via SOAP interface
I'm unable to determine the proper combination of "numbering" related fields in a new customRecord in order to add and have the customRecordId auto generated.
This pertains to the Fixed Asset module for NetSuite, and in the form through the UI, the *ID field can be set to Auto and it will automatically generate the customRecordId. I'm trying to recreate this scenerio via the SOAP API, and I'm not sure what I should be setting enableNumbering, allowNumberingOverride and the other various numbering related fields in order to make this happen.
With any combination I try, I still get an error message = "Please enter a value for Name" unless I specifically set the customRecordId field before the add().
