1. Invalid Context Object**
– **Error**: `INVALID_CONTEXT_OBJECT`
– **Example**:
“`javascript
define([‘N/record’], function(record) {
function beforeSubmit(context) {
var newRecord = context.newRecord;
newRecord.setValue({
fieldId: ‘companyname’,
value: ‘Updated Customer’
});
}
return {
beforeSubmit: beforeSubmit
};
});
“`
– **Solution**: Ensure the context object is correctly used and contains the expected properties.
**Fixed Code Line**:
“`javascript
var newRecord = context.newRecord;
“`
**2. Missing Script Type**
– **Error**: `MISSING_SCRIPT_TYPE`
– **Example**:
“`javascript
/**
* @NApiVersion 2.x
*/
define([‘N/record’], function(record) {
function beforeSubmit(context) {
// User event logic here
}
return {
beforeSubmit: beforeSubmit
};
});
“`
– **Solution**: Add the `@NScriptType` JSDoc tag to specify the script type.
**Fixed Code Line**:
“`javascript
* @NScriptType UserEventScript
“`
3. Unexpected Token
Error: SyntaxError: Unexpected token
Example:
define([‘N/record’], function(record) {
function beforeSubmit(context) {
var newRecord = context.newRecord;
newRecord.setValue({
fieldId: ‘companyname’,
value: ‘Updated Customer’
});
}
return {
beforeSubmit: beforeSubmit
};
});
Solution: Check for missing or extra characters, such as commas, brackets, or parentheses.
Fixed Code Line:
newRecord.setValue({
The error in this example is not immediately obvious because the code snippet provided is actually correct. The issue might arise from a different part of the script or from a missing or extra character elsewhere in the script. Here’s a more detailed explanation:
Possible Error Source: The SyntaxError: Unexpected token can occur if there is a missing or extra character, such as a comma, bracket, or parenthesis, somewhere in the script. This error message indicates that the JavaScript engine encountered a character it didn’t expect while parsing the script.
To help you better, here’s a more comprehensive example with a deliberate syntax error and its fix:
Example with Error:
define([‘N/record’], function(record) {
function beforeSubmit(context) {
var newRecord = context.newRecord;
newRecord.setValue({
fieldId: ‘companyname’,
value: ‘Updated Customer’
}); // Missing closing parenthesis for define function
}
return {
beforeSubmit: beforeSubmit
};
Fixed Example:
define([‘N/record’], function(record) { // Corrected line
function beforeSubmit(context) {
var newRecord = context.newRecord;
newRecord.setValue({
fieldId: ‘companyname’,
value: ‘Updated Customer’
});
}
return {
beforeSubmit: beforeSubmit
};
});
In this corrected example, the missing closing parenthesis for the define function is added, resolving the SyntaxError: Unexpected token.
