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

Code:
function printLabels(request, response) {
//retrieve the record id passed to the Suitelet
var recId = request.getParameter(‘id’);

//load records
var recSO = nlapiLoadRecord(‘salesorder’, recId);
var companyInfo = nlapiLoadConfiguration(‘companyinformation’);
var recShipAddress = recSO.viewSubrecord(‘shippingaddress’);
var recBillAddress = recSO.viewSubrecord(‘billingaddress’);
var customerId = nlapiGetFieldValue(‘entity’);

// load the customer record using the internal id acquired above
var customerRec = nlapiLoadRecord(‘customer’, customerId, {recordmode : ‘dynamic’});
——

As soon as I added : var customerId = nlapiGetFieldValue(‘entity’);

var customerRec = nlapiLoadRecord(‘customer’, customerId, {recordmode : ‘dynamic’});

I keep getting “SSS_MISSING_REQD_ARGUMENT” and cannot source any fields from customer record. I am completely new to sutescript. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

You are on a Suitelet. There are no local field value because there is no local record. nlapiGet anything will not work.Looking at this code, I believe you mean to say var customerId = recSO.getFieldValue(‘entity’)

I agree with Olivier. Please note that the use of nlapiGet or nlapiSet vs a record is done on either user event script and client script script because your working on the context of a record. When dealing with Suitelet or other server side scripts, you have to use the getting and setting on the nlobjRecord which on this case is the recSo.
