Sending WooCommerce order to NetSuite - php

Question

I'm attempting to take an order from WooCommerce using the Rest API, and add that information into NetSuite as a Sales Order. I can successfully grab the order information from WooCommerce, but I am unsuccessful when adding the order into NetSuite using the PHPToolkit. Here is what I have so far:
<?php
/*
* Add a customer to Netsuite.
*
* paramtypesmap
*
*/
require_once 'includes/functions.php';
// create array of fields
$itemArr = array();
$i = 0;
$service = new NetSuiteService();
$salesOrder = new SalesOrder();
$salesOrder->entity = new RecordRef();
$salesOrder->entity->internalId = 512;
$salesOrder->entity->type = 'customer';
$salesOrder->shipDate = formatDate('2014-10-06T07:12:57.000-07:00');
$service = new NetSuiteService();
$service->setSearchPreferences(false, 1000);
$siteCategory = new SearchMultiSelectField();
$siteCategory->operator = "anyOf";
$siteCategory->searchValue = array('internalId' => 512);
$search = new ItemSearchBasic();
$search->internalId = $siteCategory;
$request = new SearchRequest();
$request->searchRecord = $search;
$searchResponse = $service->search($request);
$products = $searchResponse->searchResult->recordList->record;
$salesOrder->itemList = new SalesOrderItemList();
$item = new SalesOrderItem();
$item->item = new RecordRef();
$item->item->internalId = 531;
$item->quantity = 1;
//removeEmpty($item->item);
//removeEmpty($item);
$item->price = new RecordRef();
$item->price->internalId = 1;
$item->amount = 55.3;
$salesOrder->itemList->item=array(0=>$item);
//Equivalent too print_r
pr($item);
//Equivalent too print_r
pr($salesOrder);
removeEmpty($salesOrder);
$request = new AddRequest();
$request->record = $salesOrder;
//$service->setFields($purchaseOrderFields);
$response = $service->add($request);
if (!$response->writeResponse->status->isSuccess) {
echo getErrors($response->writeResponse);
} else {
echo success($response->writeResponse->baseRef->internalId);
}
?>
I'm just trying to work from the ground up to see what fields are required and how to build them, however I keep getting this error when ran:
Please choose a child matrix item
I have spent the last couple of days attempting to try some Google Fu on the problem, but with my luck found nothing. Can anyone help me with this?

Answer 1

Based from the error message, you are trying to submit a Parent Matrix Item instead of the child. Verify it by checking the Item Record with internal id 531.

Answer 2

The best way to achieve correct internal ids is to import Matrix Items directly from NetSuite into WooCommerce as variable products. Assigning the internal id to each variation.
