How do you guys/gals handle a corporate credit and allocating expense to certain event. For example our company does trade shows and we would like to be able to track them via some sort of field on the expense line of the credit card charge. In the past we had used class, but going forward we are getting more segmentation and class will be used for something else other than trade shows. I am not a NetSuite expert by any means and work in our accounting department. So if the expense line is editable to create another column that would be great.

we created a custom record for projects. we track department, program manager, budget, start and end dates, etc. You can add that to your expense line. we make ours mandatory and if it's not tied to a project, we use "general spending"
