Autogenerating Numbers for Subsidiary Entities

edited Jun 2, 2025 2:25PM in SuiteCloud / Customization 9 comments

Hi There


I am currently dealing with the merger of Company N with Company A so they are both part of the same Netsuite instance.


Company N has an autogenerated customer number convention of 'ACCT' and a number. e.g. ACCT24394


Company A has an autogenerated customer number format of just numbers .e.g. 35456


The multisubsidiary customer feature is not enabled in the target account


Is there a way for autogenerated numbering to use different prefixes depending on the subsidiary of the customer?


I can't see any options in the settings. Has anyone managed to come up with a script (if that's even possible?)

Howdy, Stranger!
