Trying to make an update to our entity structure. Previously we had on single entity, and now we'd like a 'parent' above this entity. Even when I set a date in the 'Allow Subsidiary Hierarchy to be Modified' I still can't make my prior standalone subsidiary a child of the additional subsidiary I am creating. Does this require a ticket with NetSuite to do?

It is definitely possible. There is a trick to this. Create your brand new subsidiary (the parent subsidiary field will default to your old subsidiary, this is fine for now), fill out all the required fields such as currency. Save your brand new subsidiary. Then edit the brand new subsidiary, and you can now blank out the Parent Subsidiary (a return email address is now required, just fill that out). Then save again. Once saved, the two subsidiaries will automatically switch.
I literally just tried this and it worked for me. I hope this helps!
