What is a characteristic of entry forms in NetSuite?

Entry forms in NetSuite are designed to facilitate data entry for various records, such as transactions and entities. One of their notable characteristics is that they can include fields hidden from users. This capability allows organizations to streamline the user interface by presenting only the necessary fields needed for a particular role or function while still retaining important information within the system that may not need to be visible or editable by all users.

By having hidden fields, administrators can ensure that sensitive or irrelevant information is kept out of sight, which can enhance user experience and reduce the risk of data entry errors. It allows for better control over data entry processes, where certain fields can be automatically populated or calculated without user interaction.

This feature supports various business processes by maintaining data integrity and security. It enables customization of entry forms to fit specific business needs while ensuring that relevant data is captured in the background without overwhelming users with unnecessary fields during the entry process.
