how do i get a sub record like a custom record type on a another record like a journal entry. I see in a demo account the custom record was under the custom subtab but don't know how it got there

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To get a custom record type to show up on a custom subtab of another record like a journal entry, you need to follow these steps: 1. Create your custom record type. This will be the sub-record that you want to show up on the subtab of the parent record. 2. On your custom record, create a field of type List/Record and select the parent record type (in your case, Journal Entry). 3. In the settings of this field, tick the

RECORD IS PARENT

checkbox. This tells NetSuite that the custom record is a child of the parent record. 4. Under the Display tab of this field, select the

PARENT SUBTAB

where you want the custom records to appear. This will be the subtab on the parent record where the custom record will be displayed. 5. Save your changes. Now, when you view a parent record, you should see your custom record listed under the specified subtab. If you want to move a custom record from the custom subtab to its own subtab, you need to create a new subtab on the parent record and then add your custom record as a sublist on this new subtab. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******

Be aware that creating parent-child record relationships like these appears like a sublist, but might not actually show up in the parent record object in scripting and workflows, and in searches I sometimes have to build the search to be about the child record type because the record reference field is from the child to the parent, but the parent doesn't have one going back the other direction.
