Error when searching for customer
Hi,
I'm trying to do a very basic search for a customer record for a given ID. Every time I do this I get an unexpected error:
[Code=UNEXPECTED_ERROR] An unexpected error occurred. Error ID: fnsovbez1ir5bb5t5ht0o
This is the code I am using, which is taken from one of the sample applications. I am using the InternalID which was returned when I created the customer in Netsuite.
string internalID = "95917" // create the search CustomerSearch customerSearch = new CustomerSearch(); CustomerSearchBasic customerSearchBasic = new CustomerSearchBasic(); SearchStringField entityId = null; entityId = new SearchStringField(); entityId.@operator = SearchStringFieldOperator.@is; entityId.operatorSpecified = true; entityId.searchValue = internalID; customerSearchBasic.entityId = entityId; customerSearch.basic = customerSearchBasic; // perform the search SearchResult result = m_Service.search(customerSearch);
