where is the entity id set to be auto generated on the vendor record

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

The entity id is set to be auto-generated on the vendor record in NetSuite under the Setup -> Company -> Auto-Generated Numbers section. Here, you can find the entity's sub-tab where you can check if the line of the vendor is set to allow override. If you are using SuiteScript and want to set the entity id manually, you can do so by setting the 'autoname' checkbox to false and then setting the 'entityid' during the creation of the record. Here is a code snippet for reference:

javascript
record.setValue("autoname", false);
record.setValue("entityid", customer.entityId);

Remember, if you are using auto-generated numbers to generate vendor ids and adding a prefix to the entity id, it might be more efficient to set up the auto-numbering to add the prefix for you. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
