can you change the base period in netsuite

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

Based on the conversations provided, it appears that you cannot change the base period in NetSuite for different subsidiaries. The base period is set at a global level and applies to all subsidiaries. This is confirmed in the first conversation where a user asked if it's possible to have different base periods for different fiscal calendars, and the response indicated that NetSuite's documentation states this isn't possible. However, for the second part of your question, it seems that you can manipulate the period field in a saved search to show as a date field. This is suggested in the second conversation where a user asked if it's possible to get the period field on a saved search to show as a date field, and the response was to choose the End Date from the Accounting Period join. Lastly, to see the current period in NetSuite, you can navigate to Setup > Accounting > Manage Accounting Period as suggested in the third conversation. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
