Renaming SuiteBilling Records

You can rename the following SuiteBilling records to better suit your specific business needs:

When you rename a record, the new name replaces the original name in the NetSuite user interface. For example, after you change the name “subscription” to “contract,” you go to Transactions > Contracts > Create Contracts instead of Transactions > Subscriptions > Create Subscriptions. The new name is also used in searches and results. However, it doesn't appear in Help Center searches or topics. The new record name is also used in reports, Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), error messages, and alerts.

Note:

If you change the name “subscription” to “contract,” the feature name doesn't change at Setup > Company > Enable Features. The same is true with any information or error message on the Enable Features page.

Renaming the subscription record also renames its item and term records. For example, changing the name “subscription” to “contract” updates the item record to "contract item" and the term record to "contract term." Renaming change orders or subscription plans doesn't affect other record names.
