No SubJob numbering in NetSuite?

edited Nov 28, 2019 12:26PM in Accounting / ERP 7 comments

Am I crazy or is there no SubJob numbering in Netsuite?

I don't want to have unique project ID #'s for subjobs, I would like them to keep the primary Job number and just have a unique numerical identifier as a suffix

For example if my Primary Job ID # is PID1111 I would like my subjobs to read as follows:

Subjob 1: PID1111.01
Subjob 2: PID1111.02
Subjob 3: PID1111.03

and so on. How do I accomplish this considering the fact that you can create subjobs but have no option to create subjob numbers in the "auto-generated numbering" section of the setup menu?

FYI: it seems kind of silly to me to have a SUB of anything without creating a corresponding auto-generated number.  NetSuite has clearly recognized this issue as it relates to customers. It may want to make note and make it a standard part of project planning for all future development/enhancements with attached Unique identifiers.  Good news is that we all know it can be done.

Howdy, Stranger!
