We have a vendor that uses NS as well. They have asked us to fill out a vendor registration form. I guess this will create a Vendor record in their NS instance. We're trying to implement something like that. The url of the custom "page" contains this: ext.forms.netsuite.com/app/site/hosting/scriptlet.nl?script=7&deploy=1 Is this likely achieved via Suitelet? How about the form? A custom external form or custom record?

They are the vendor? So they want to register you as a customer? I guess, it’s just an ‘Online Customer Form’ (Setup > Marketing > Online Customer Form)

You could do this either via an external suitlet or online form. That URL is the former. I wouldn't create vendor records directly. Rather create a custom record and have another suitelet that can convert them to vendors after review.

We're planning to use to have it automatically create a Vendor record but marked as inactive until approved. That's simpler for us than creating a whole custom record until it is is approved.
Thanks for the inputs.
@Wim Suenens we are the vendor and they're the customer. We want to implement the same thing which is we are the customer and we want our new vendors to enter their details on a form, so that we won't do it manually.

In that case you'll probably need the suitelet option

Got it. Thanks, @michoel

This could also be done with a custom record, online form and workflow

@AI1 I couldn't find an online vendor form. Where can I see that? Thank you
Or how can we make a non-customer form an online one?

You would make a custom record that has the fields you want Name, email, phone, etc Then you would make an online form tied to that custom record Then make a workflow that has a create record action to create your vendor and map the fields from your custom form to your vendor record
