Hi all, looking for some EDI implementation pointers here; external ship-to account numbers coming into Netsuite customer account with multiple ship-to addresses via EDI, what's best practices of handling such? We currently have two options. 1. Manually mapping each up front to the correct account? or 2. create child accounts in NS for each ship-to account? Please let me now if there are any other options.

Not sure I understand, when you mean ship to account do you mean Third Party Billing account or are you referring to edi ship to code?

ship to code, we're going to try with a lookup table first; hypothetically this should take care of it.

yeah if it's a ship to code then an address lookup table is the way to do it alternate ways I have done or if an address has additional notes like contact info, delivery notes, etc is to either use the address label or a custom field on the address record, then have a script that runs that then finds the corresponding address on the customer record.
