AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
Based on the conversations, it seems that changing expense categories on mass in NetSuite can be a bit challenging. However, there are a few workarounds that were suggested: 1. One way to handle this is to create an expense category for each account and give it the same naming/numbering. This can be done using a CSV import, which can be a bit tedious but is not too difficult. 2. Another workaround is to use a generic category that goes to an account that can be changed at upload time. This would require a manual reclassification of the expense from another category account. 3. You could also use a journal entry to push from your category to the account. However, this would still require knowing which account the expense belongs to. 4. In Expensify, you can turn off categories so that only one category is available to pick. Then, you can do a CSV upload to update them and recategorize to the right category. 5. Another suggestion is to load the entire chart of accounts into categories in Expensify. Then, deselect the categories that are not wanted to show. 6. For changing the order of the expense categories in the drop-down, you can rename the expense categories and stick a number at the front of them, with 1 being the most important, etc. Remember, these are workarounds and may not be the most efficient or effective way to handle mass changes to expense categories. It's always best to thoroughly test any changes in a non-production environment before implementing them in a live system. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
