Oracle NetSuite FAQ

How does NetSuite manage the updates of Journal Entries?

When updating any type of journal entry that has been applied as a payment to an invoice or vendor bill, the relationship between the journal entry and payment is removed, and the payment is no longer applied.

Do you need to indicate the currency when you create a Journal Entry?

It is not recommended to set a value for currency. Oracle NetSuite automatically populates this field based on the value of other fields on the record.

How does NetSuite manage subsidiaries when creating a new Vendor?

When creating a new vendor for Oracle NetSuite the field subsidiaryRefs needs to be an array of one value. If subsidiaryRefs contains more than one value, Oracle Netsuite will use the first element of the array, discarding the other ones.
