All of the sudden, I am getting this DUP_ENTITY error, and I have tried everything to get past this. In the past I have set the entityid with and without a unique id, and nothing seems to work. I am trying to create a customer record within a restlet that has worked fine in the past, and all of the sudden it stopped working. I have made sure all of the fields are unique and still get this error. I am at a loss how to get past it. Any suggestions?

this is my endpoint: https://rest.na3.netsuite.com

Content: "{"error" : {"code" : "Error", "message" : "ERROR: Failed to create customer. nCode: DUP_ENTITYnDetails: This entity already exists."}}", StatusCode: BadRequest, StatusDescription: "Bad Request"

Here is my code:

function createCustomer(input) {

nlapiLogExecution('DEBUG', 'createCustomer()', 'firstname = ' + input.firstname + ', lastname = ' + input.lastname);

var id = '';

var status = '7';

var stage = 'lead';

var defaultSubsidiary = 1;

try {

var customer = nlapiCreateRecord('customer', { stage: stage });

customer.setFieldValue("custentity_impartner", 'T');

customer.setFieldValue("custentity_is_deal_registr ation", 'T');

customer.setFieldValue('entitystatus', status);

customer.setFieldValue('subsidiary', defaultSubsidiary);

customer.setFieldValue('isperson', 'T');

customer.setFieldValue('isinactive', 'F');

customer.setFieldValue('isprivate', 'F');

customer.selectNewLineItem('addressbook');

customer.setCurrentLineItemValue('addressbook', 'defaultshipping', 'T');

customer.setCurrentLineItemValue('addressbook', 'defaultbilling', 'T');

customer.setCurrentLineItemValue('addressbook', 'label', 'Primary Address');

customer.setCurrentLineItemValue('addressbook', 'isresidential', 'F');

customer.setFieldValue('entityid', input.firstname + ' ' + input.lastname);

var address = customer.createCurrentLineItemSubrecord('addressbo ok', 'addressbookaddress');

address.setFieldValue('attention', input.salutation + ' ' + input.firstname + ' ' + input.lastname);

nlapiLogExecution('DEBUG', 'createCustomer()', 'stage = ' + stage + ', entitystatus = ' + status);

for (var fieldname in input) {

if (input.hasOwnProperty(fieldname)) {

if (fieldname != "recordtype" && fieldname != "id") {

var value = input[fieldname];

if ((fieldname != 'addressee') && (fieldname != 'addr1') && (fieldname != 'city') && (fieldname != 'state') && (fieldname != 'zip') && (fieldname != 'country')) {

if (value && typeof value != 'object') {

customer.setFieldValue(fieldname, value);

nlapiLogExecution('DEBUG', 'createCustomer()', 'fieldname: ' + fieldname + ', value: ' + value);

} else {

customer.setFieldValues(fieldname, value);

}

} else {

if (value && typeof value != 'object') {

customer.setLineItemValue('addressbook', fieldname, 1, value);

nlapiLogExecution('DEBUG', 'createCustomer() addressbook', 'fieldname: ' + fieldname + ', value: ' + value);

}

}

}

}

}

//commit subrecord and line item

address.commit();

customer.commitLineItem('addressbook');

var id = nlapiSubmitRecord(customer);

nlapiLogExecution('DEBUG', 'createCustomer()', 'Created customer id: ' + id);

} catch (ex) {

var message = 'ERROR: Failed to create customer. ' + ex;

nlapiLogExecution('ERROR', 'createCustomer()', message);

throw nlapiCreateError('Error', message, true);

}

return id;
