AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
Based on the conversations, it seems that the "entity number" field for a Vendor is not directly accessible or modifiable through the API, import/export, workflow, or UI form layout. However, a workaround could be to create a custom field that copies the value of the "entity number" when a vendor is created or edited. This custom field can then be used in your operations. Here's a general idea of how you can do it: 1. Navigate to Customization -> Lists, Records, & Fields -> Entity Fields -> New. 2. Create a new custom field, let's call it
custentity_entity_number
. 3. In the 'Applies To' section, select 'Vendor'. 4. In the 'Default Value' section, use a formula to copy the value of the "entity number" field. 5. Save the new custom field. Now, whenever a vendor is created or edited, the "entity number" will be copied to
custentity_entity_number
, which you can then use in your operations. Please note that this is a workaround and might not be suitable for all use cases. Always test thoroughly before implementing in a production environment. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
