Is there a way to import or create custom fields in bulk? I have more than 100+ custom fields to create and I'm hoping I can save some time.

Yes. Just make sure you know why you're creating them and exactly what you want them to do.
I've seen far too many cases of custom fields that serve no purpose or are created because someone didn't know of a Native field that already does what you're looking for.

SDF is an option

SDF is that path I would take. Can mock up in code then push into your NS instance.

Yep, SDF is one way, Salto (probably the open-source CLI is enough) is another which might be a bit easier if you are not an SDF expert (basically fetch your netsuite instance, clone/copy-paste the custom field that you’d like, edit if needed, and deploy back).

Oh thanks. I'll check Salto as well. Not familiar with that but maybe that's better for us since we're not an SDF expert
