As a NetSuite Developer, learning all the navigation paths could be overwhelming. An example is creating custom fields.

If you haven’t encountered this before, custom fields in NetSuite are not limited to record types such as Item, Entity, CRM and Transactions.

You can also add fields to these types of records:

Account
Address (See Creating Custom Address Fields)
Bin
Campaign Event
Charge
Charge Rule
Class
Company
Competitor
Department
Expense Category
Inventory Cost Template
Item Demand Plan
Item Supply Plan
Location
Manufacturing Cost Template
Manufacturing Routing
Note
Payroll Item
Planned Standard Cost
Product
Product Version
Promotion Code
Role
Standard Cost Version
Tax Code
Workflow
Workplace

Its secret hiding place? It’s found on Customization > Lists, Records & Fields > Other Record Fields.
