Accessing the "internal_id" of a customer in a custom entity field
Is there any way of adding the netsuite internal key for a customer in a custom entity field on a customer record (the equivalent of the customer_id on the customers table from odbc, or entity_id on the entity table from odbc)?
We want to use this key across another system and want to be able to generate a URL link with this key embedded in order that staff can click and access associated information relating to that customer held in the other system (the systems are syncronised via ODBC). Obviously we want to use the non changing netsuite internal key as this is the only reliable method of associating the records across systems.
