Can I populate a lookup field with a server script?

edited Jan 8, 2020 2:23AM in SuiteCloud / Customization 6 comments

I have an after submit script on a custom record for payments made to a finance company. After they are imported I need to look up the customer record and attach the payment to it.

I am trying to add the customer name to the custom record so that it attaches to the customer record. The script does write to the Customer field, but does not save the value when I submit it.

I understand that there is an issue with popup selects. Since I am using the exact customer number there is no popup, I am not sure this is causing me trouble. When I enter it in the UI, it does the customer lookup with no popup.

Howdy, Stranger!
