I am creating customers for NetSuite from my application by using the NetSuite PHP SDK, version 2013_2.
This mostly works, but I can not set a status for new Customers. No matter what, the status will always be CUSTOMER-Won Customer
, which I don't want. I can't find any documentation about this, so I basically tried whatever seemed to make sense and tried to understand the code of the SDK. Here are some of the things I tried:
$customer->entityStatus = 17;
$customer->entityStatus = new \RecordRef(array('internalId' => 17, 'type' => 'customer'));
$customer->entityStatus = new \RecordRef();
$customer->entityStatus->internalId = 17;
All of these are simply ignored. I tried different internal IDs (and of course, I made sure all of them exist in the system). I tried using strings ('17'
instead of 17
), but nothing helped.
Documentation has nothing about this either.
Here's my full working code:
$ns = new \NS_NetSuiteService();
$customer = new \Customer();
$customer->companyName = $company->getName();
$customer->entityStatus = 17;
$customer->email = $user->getEmail();
$request = new \AddRequest();
$request->record = $customer;
$res = $ns->add($request);
