options.type

string

required

The record type.

Use the following guidelines:

  • When copying an instance of a standard NetSuite record type, set this value by using the record.Type enum.

  • When copying an instance of a custom record type, set this value by using the custom record type’s string ID. For help finding this ID, see Custom Record.

  • If set to true, the new record is created in dynamic mode.

  • If set to false, the new record is created in standard mode.

By default, this value is false.

Note:

For additional information about standard and dynamic mode, see record.Record and SuiteScript 2.x Standard and Dynamic Modes.

Syntax
Important:

The following code sample shows the syntax for this member. It is not a functional example. For a complete promise script example, see Promise Object.

          // Add additional code
...
function copyRecord() {

    // Copy an instance of a standard record type.
    var copyRecordPromise = record.copy.promise({
        type: record.Type.PHONE_CALL,
     id: 165
    });
    
    // Note: To copy an instance of a custom record type,
    // use the record type's string ID instead of the record
    // module's Type enum. For example:
    // type: 'customrecord_feature'  

    copyRecordPromise.then(function(recordObject) {   
        recordObject.setValue({
            fieldId: 'title',
         value: 'Sprint 5 bug triage'
    });
            
        recordObject.setValue({
            fieldId: 'message',
         value: 'Please review the PowerPoint prior to the call.'
     });
                        
        var recordId = recordObject.save();
                
      // Add any other needed logic that shouldn't execute until
      // after the record is copied
        log.debug({
          title: 'Record saved', 
          details: 'Id of new record: ' + recordId
     });
                 
    }, function(e) {
        log.error({
            title: e.name, 
        details: e.message
     });
    });
}
...
