New to NetSuite | How Account Numbers Are Created and Used
When you first start using NetSuite, you might notice that account numbers are not turned on by default. This means that when you look at your accounts, they will not have any numbers next to their names right away.
If you want to use account numbers, an administrator needs to enable a specific setting. This preference can be found on the Accounting Preferences page in NetSuite.
Once this preference is enabled, NetSuite will automatically generate account numbers for your existing system accounts. Only the system-generated accounts will have account numbers assigned right away after turning on this setting. These numbers are created by NetSuite itself, so you do not have to enter them manually for these system accounts. This automatic process helps keep your accounting records organized according to traditional accounting categories.
