Update employee in Netsuite with Mule ESB

Question

How to set department in employee on netsuite with mule ESB?

Unless you provide a link to the Netsuite API you intend to use, it will be hard for Mule users to help you. — David Dossot, Sep 16 '11 at 21:29
I use this connector to NetSuite http://www.mulesoft.org/muleforge/netsuite-cloud-connector — Hellish Shoman, Sep 19 '11 at 07:54

Add Department to emplloyee looks like this

<netsuite: update-record recordType="EMPLOYEE" id="#internalId">
     <netsuite:attributes>
            <netsuite:attribute key="department" value="#[groovy: new com.netsuite.webservices.platform.core_2010_2.RecordRef( com.netsuite.webservices.platform.core_2010_2.types.RecordType.DEPARTMENT,'InternaldepartmentID','ExternalDepartmentID' );]"/>
      </netsuite:attributes>
</netsuite:update-record>

You can definitely use NetSuite Cloud Connector to create an EMPLOYEE. The snippet for mule-config.xml would look something along the lines of this:

<netsuite:add-record recordType="EMPLOYEE">
      <netsuite:attributes>
          <netsuite:attribute key="firstName" value="#[variable:firstName]" />
          <netsuite:attribute key="lastName" value="#[variable:lastName]" />
          <netsuite:attribute key="email" value="#[variable:email]" />
      </netsuite:attributes>
  </netsuite:add-record>

You can find more information about our connector here.

A department can be set using a regular attribute:

<netsuite:attribute key="deparment" value="#[variable:departmentId]" />

I had to add a department employee. I already know I know how to add a department employee. Now there was a problem removing the department from the employee. – Hellish Shoman Sep 19 '11 at 14:47
this not work, argument type mismatch - had objects of type "java.lang.String" but expected signature "com.netsuite.webservices.platform.core_2010_2.RecordRef" – Hellish Shoman Sep 19 '11 at 14:51
Which version of the connector are you using? – Emiliano Lesende Sep 19 '11 at 15:11
I'm using mule-module-netsuite-1.0. – Hellish Shoman Sep 20 '11 at 10:33
Can you file an issue in github.com/mulesoft/netsuite-connector? This is clearly not the way we intend this connector to work. – Emiliano Lesende Sep 20 '11 at 12:04
