# NS0068 Export Error in NetSuite Integration

If you see the error:

NS0068: You do not have permission to set value for element — 'Created From'.
NS0068: NetSuite won't let Expensify set the 'Created From' field (custbody_createdfrom_expensify).

This means NetSuite is blocking Expensify from setting the **Created From** field during export.

This means the **Created From** field is not visible on the preferred transaction form in NetSuite.
The **Created From** field is a custom transaction body field with the ID `custbody_createdfrom_expensify`. The **Expensify Connect bundle** adds it to NetSuite.

## Why the NS0068 Export Error Happens in NetSuite
## Why the NS0068 export error happens in NetSuite

The NS0068 error occurs when:

- The **Created From** field does not apply to the record type you're exporting to (vendor bills, expense reports, or journal entries).
- The **Created From** field is hidden on the preferred export form.
- The form does not allow the integration to populate the Created From field.
- Expensify Card transactions are exported as journal entries and the Journal Entry form does not show the Created From field.
- The role used by the Expensify connection can't edit the **Created From** field.
- The **Created From** field is missing because the **Expensify Connect bundle** is not installed or is out of date.
- Expensify Card transactions are exported as journal entries and the journal entry form does not show the Created From field.

Expensify must be able to write to the Created From field during export.

## Why the NS0068 Export Error Happens in NetSuite
## Why the NS0068 export error happens in NetSuite

The NS0068 error typically occurs when:

- The **Created From** field is hidden on the NetSuite transaction form used for exports.
- The preferred transaction form does not allow the field to be displayed.
- NetSuite blocks the integration from setting the field value because it is not visible.

If the field is hidden, NetSuite prevents the integration from setting its value and the export fails.
- The **Created From** field does not apply to the record type you're exporting to (vendor bills, expense reports, or journal entries).
- The **Created From** field is hidden on the transaction form Expensify uses for your export type.
- The role used by the Expensify connection can't edit the **Created From** field.
- The **Created From** field is missing from NetSuite because the **Expensify Connect bundle** is not installed or is out of date.

This is a transaction form visibility issue, not a role permission or token configuration issue.
If any of these apply, NetSuite prevents the integration from setting the field value and the export fails.
