NetSuite is a leading ERP used by many small-to-medium sized retailers. Its web-based front-end, breadth of functionality and high degree of customisation make it a popular core system for growing and established retail brands.

NetSuite’s extensive customisation carries the risk that it is configured inappropriately for a retailer's processes. It can be poorly integrated with their other systems, and its functionality can be misused or underused by the retail team. We believe out-of-the-box connectors and DIY integration platforms rarely capture the detail required for such a customisable ERP system and do little to mitigate these risks.

Frog Stack provides a complete and managed set of integration flows for NetSuite with the flexibility to work with NetSuite customisations. Just as important as the technology are the people. Frog Stack is a team of experienced retail consultants that support you with all elements of an integration project and can advise on business process and retail systems/data.

NetSuite Integration Points

The NetSuite data objects that we typically integrate with are:

  • Sales Orders, Invoices
  • Credit Memos, Return Authorisations
  • Item Receipts, Item Fulfillments
  • Transfer Orders, Inventory Transfers
  • Inventory Adjustments
  • Bank Deposits, Journals
  • Custom Objects, Custom Fields, Custom Lists

Our NetSuite integration benefits from being 'light-touch'. Our extensive use of the NetSuite APIs rather than embedded scripts and SuiteApps mean very little exists within the NetSuite system. Upgrades and sandbox refreshes can occur with almost no disruption to the integrations run through Frog Stack to/from NetSuite.

Integration Challenges

Some of the key challenges Frog Stack help retailers get right when assisting with their NetSuite integration include:

  • Posting in-store and online sales, returns and exchanges.
  • Handling returns - both expected and unexpected returns, B2B returns, and stock returns with a variety of stock statuses.
  • Automatic stock and financial postings based on e-commerce and in-store refunds. Including payment references to allow easy reconciliation across multiple refund scenarios, such as cancellations and return-to-sender.
  • Synchronising inventory across multiple channels - websites, marketplaces, stores.
  • Automated or semi-automated payout reconciliations for various payment providers (including Adyen, Klarna, and Shopify Payments).
  • Stock / inventory transfer orders and direct transfers - integrating to POS/WMS or managed on NetSuite.
  • Stock takes / stock counts - full and cycle counts.
  • Stock reconciliation reporting - regular checks to ensure the ERP and WMS stock records align; or reporting on why not.
  • Unifying customer data - both inside the ERP and to third-party systems such as CRM, POS and e-commerce platforms.
  • Amending postings depending on specific criteria - e.g. order channels that pay tax on your behalf (e.g. TikTok), third party fulfilment services (Global-E, Swap).
