Import Chart of Accounts - Summary field missing?
Hi All,
New to NetSuite and attempting to import a COA which consists of Parent (Summary/Inactive) and Child accounts.
I've split the COA into two separate Parent & Child imports, to ensure the Parents exist before importing the Children with a "Subaccount of" reference.
You cannot import a Child with a "Subaccount of" an Inactive account, UNLESS it is also a Summary account.
However, the Summary field doesn't appear in the mapping list (seems to be the only field unavailable) for use in my Parent import - is there a way this be set at import or after the fact via mass update?
