Relationship between Customer and SalesOrder - Meaning

edited Dec 6, 2019 2:34PM in General 1 comment

Hello,

I'm integrating an ecommerce with Netsuite.

Scenario:

I have a SalesOrder with 5 Items
I have two customers:
- Customer A: { Name: "CompanyA", ...}
- Customer B: { Name: "CompanyB", ...}

I want to invoice the first two items of the SalesOrder to CustomerA, and the last three items to CustomerB.

Until here, everything is fine.
---
Question:

SalesOrder has a field "Customer".
What's the meaning of that? Who should be the Customer of a SalesOrder that is invoiced to two different customers? What does it mean to be the Customer of a SalesOrder?

I don't understand this relationship. The customer of a SalesOrder is definitely not the one that pays.

Howdy, Stranger!
