Create your new subsidiary. The parent subsidiary field will default to your old subsidiary, this is fine for now. Fill out all the required fields such as currency and save your new subsidiary. 2. Edit the new subsidiary, and you can now blank out the Parent Subsidiary (a return email address is now required, just fill that out). Then save again. Once saved, the two subsidiaries will automatically switch. Please note that NetSuite OneWorld is designed to have one top-level parent subsidiary. All other subsidiaries must be created as children (or further descendants) under that parent. You cannot have multiple top-level (or “parent”) subsidiaries within a single account. Also, changing the subsidiary on historical or posted transactions is generally not supported. Once a transaction is posted or a record is saved with a subsidiary, the subsidiary field is often locked for data integrity reasons. Reassigning existing data to a different subsidiary typically isn’t feasible without a significant data migration effort, and even then, it may not be supported by NetSuite.
