NetSuite Admin Tip | Benefits of Using External ID While Uploading Transaction Data in NetSuite
When you're importing transactions like vendor bills or customer invoices in NetSuite, using an External ID can make the process much smoother. Here's how it helps:
- Group Multiple Lines into One Transaction
If a bill or invoice has many lines, giving all those lines the same External ID tells NetSuite they belong to one transaction. Without it, NetSuite might create separate records for each line.
- Avoid Duplicate Records
External IDs help NetSuite recognize if a record already exists, which reduces the chances of duplicate entries during re-imports.
- Easier to Fix Errors
If something goes wrong during import, External IDs make it easy to find and fix specific records.
