How can I create custom records with suitescript in netsuite?

var recExpense = nlapiCreateRecord("customrecord_expense");
recExpense.setFieldValue(1028,"3223");//employee number
nlapiSubmitRecord(recExpense);

I just wrote that simple code to create a new custom record but after the execution just a blank record is being created setFieldValue method is not working and it does not update field value.
What am I missing? And how do you create custom records with SuiteScripts?

The above code didn't work because you have to put the internal id of the field you want to update not the record id.

var recExpense = nlapiCreateRecord("customrecord_expense");
recExpense.setFieldValue('internalid_of_the_field',"3223");//employee number
nlapiSubmitRecord(recExpense);

Note : You can go to your record and just click on the field you want to update a help box will pop up and at the bottom you can get the internal id of the field.
