New to NetSuite | SuiteQL: Finding Record Type and Field Names Using NetSuite UI

edited Aug 5, 2025 4:54PM in SuiteCloud

In the New to NetSuite | SuiteQL Overview article, we explored the fundamental concepts and capabilities of SuiteQL. One of the first things you'll need is the correct names of record types and fields for your queries. For example, a simple query like the one below returns a list of employee IDs:

SELECT employee.entityid FROM employee

In this query:

  • employee is the record type.
  • entityid is the field on that record.

But how do you know which record types and fields you can use? One helpful method is to use the NetSuite UI to find the internal IDs of these elements.
