How can i update Vendor "entity number" field?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
To update the Vendor "entity number" field, you can use SuiteScript. However, you need to ensure that the "Allow Override" option is enabled for Vendor under Setup --> Company --> Auto-Generated Numbers --> Entities sub-tab. If this option is not enabled, you won't be able to manually update the entity number. If you are using auto-generated numbers and want to add a prefix to the entity number, it would be better to set up the auto-numbering to add the prefix for you. This can be done in the same Auto-Generated Numbers setup page. If you need to mass update the
entityid
field for Vendors, you might not find this option in the Mass Update submenus. However, you can use a CSV import to update these fields. Make sure to map the
entityid
field correctly in your CSV file. Please note that manipulating the
entityid
field might have implications on your reports and other functionalities that rely on this field. Always test these changes in a sandbox account before applying them to your production account. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
