is it possible to create a custom body field on a transaction that hits the GL?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

Yes, it is possible to create a custom body field on a transaction that hits the General Ledger (GL) in NetSuite. However, it's important to note that the custom field itself does not directly impact the GL. Instead, the custom field can be used to store or manipulate data that is then used in the transaction that does impact the GL. For example, you could create a custom field that holds a specific value, and then use that value in a calculation or condition that determines how the transaction is posted to the GL. This could be done through scripting or workflows, depending on your specific needs and the complexity of the logic involved. However, if you want a custom field that directly impacts the GL, you would need to create a custom segment. Custom segments in NetSuite are flexible, customizable fields that can be used on transactions and are designed to have an impact on the GL. Remember, any changes to transactions, including those made by scripts or GL plugins, can potentially impact the GL. Therefore, it's important to thoroughly test any changes in a sandbox environment before deploying them to your live 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. ******
