Overview of NetSuite native integration

Updated today

The native integration between Spendesk and NetSuite allows you to have accurate data between your financial tools, and save time at month closing.

Spendesk pulls your master data when you connect to NetSuite and finalize your initial configuration. The integration also provides control of this data in Spendesk to map your NetSuite chart of accounts' settings with your Spendesk accounting setup and analytical fields.
