"Invalid entity reference key -7." when creating 'note' entity under 'project' entity
Can anyone review this code and let me know if it's possible what I'm trying to do, which is onAfterSave event to grab text from a field and save it in the notes area, under Communications tab?
function updatenotes(type,form)
{
var nextsteps = nlapiGetFieldValue('custentity_notes_next_steps');
nlapiLogExecution('DEBUG','found text ' + nextsteps);
var note = nlapiCreateRecord( 'note' );
note.setFieldValue( 'title', 'Next Steps' );
note.setFieldValue( 'notedate', getdatestring( new Date() ) );
note.setFieldValue( 'entity', '-7' );
note.setFieldValue( 'note', nextsteps );
var sKey = nlapiSubmitRecord( note );
}
It comes back with the error: ""Invalid entity reference key -7."
Thanks,
Marko
