What would cause some employee entityIDs to show up as id plus name, and others to show up as just id

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

The discrepancy in how employee entityIDs are displayed, with some showing up as id plus name and others as just id, could be due to the settings in your NetSuite account. If you have the 'Auto-Generated Numbers' feature enabled, NetSuite will automatically generate a unique number for each new record of a type that requires numbering. This number is stored in the 'entityID' field. However, if you have this feature turned off, you have the flexibility to customize your ID to anything you want, and there doesn't need to be an "alternate name" for the employee. In this case, the 'entityID' field could contain a combination of the employee's name and a custom ID. Also, it's important to note that the 'entityID' field is different from the 'internalID' field. The 'internalID' is a unique identifier that NetSuite assigns to each record in the system, and it cannot be changed. If you're seeing inconsistencies in how employee entityIDs are displayed, it could be due to a mix of auto-generated and manually entered IDs in your system. Please note that changing the 'entityID' of a record should not cause any issues, as long as the new ID is unique. However, you should be careful when changing the 'entityID' of important records, such as your CFO's employee record, to avoid any potential confusion or errors. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
