how do i make a record a parent of a custom record

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To make a record a parent of a custom record in NetSuite, you need to establish a parent-child relationship between the two records. Here are the steps to do this: 1. Create a new custom field on the child record (the record you want to be the child). This field will be used to reference the parent record. 2. In the definition of this new custom field, set the type to

List/Record

. 3. Select the record type that you want to be the parent from the list. 4. Check the

Record is Parent

checkbox. This will establish the parent-child relationship between the two records. 5. Save the new custom field. You can then configure if you want the child records to be visible in the parent record as a sublist. If you have a custom record that is already set up with parent/child relationships and you're having trouble accessing the

join

, you might not be accessing the join correctly. Try creating a new field with the parent properly set up. Sometimes, it can work strangely if you set it later.
