Accessing Customer Fields from Sales Order Suitelet

edited Dec 2, 2019 5:45PM in SuiteCloud / Customization 2 comments

I am trying to create a script to generate PDF document from SO. I had no issues making it work as long as I use fields and sublists from sales order. But it seems I cannot get any values from linked customer record. I followed these steps:
1. Created suitelet that generates PDF file using nlapiXMLToPDF
2. Created client script to call on suitelet and pass internal id
3. created user event script to create a button on SO form
