nlapiGetFieldText not working on PageInit function??

edited Dec 2, 2019 6:05PM in SuiteCloud / Customization 6 comments

Hi-

We have a script on on our customer/prospect records that keeps users from moving records to a less advanced stage:
Customer>PROSPECT
CUSTOMER>LEAD
PROSPECT>LEAD
(it really messes up our reporting if a customer record switches back to LEAD or PROSPECT)

Anyway, in our Australia office some users are getting the following error:
oninit (PageInit)
Type Error Object Expected

From the USA I have tried to reproduce the error in every browser and role, but everything seems to work perfectly.

The function is only a few lines and the only variable is 'oentstat' which is set to nlapiGetFieldText('entitystatus')...

Howdy, Stranger!
