What is a limitation of Inline editing?

Inline editing in NetSuite is a feature that allows users to edit records directly from a list view or a record page without having to open the record in full edit mode. However, it does have certain limitations that users must be aware of.

The chosen answer highlights that inline editing does not permit the deletion of records. This is correct because inline editing is primarily designed for updating existing record fields swiftly and efficiently, and it does not include functionality for removing records from the database entirely. The ability to delete records requires a different set of permissions and actions, which are typically managed through a dedicated interface. This limitation helps to avoid accidental deletions during routine editing tasks, ensuring data integrity and reducing the risk of loss of important information.

Other limitations of inline editing, while also valid, pertain to the editing capabilities of specific fields or types of records. For example, certain fields may be locked for inline editing due to their importance or system constraints, and custom records might have restrictions based on how they are set up. However, those are separate issues and do not encompass the specific limitation regarding the inability to delete records through this feature, making the selected answer the most fitting regarding inline editing's constraints.
