NetSuite for Consultants

By: Peter Ries

Overview of this book

NetSuite For Consultants takes a hands-on approach to help ERP and CRM consultants implement NetSuite quickly and efficiently, as well deepen their understanding of its implementation methodology. During the course of this book, you’ll get a clear picture of what NetSuite is, how it works, and how accounts, support, and updates work within its ecosystem. Understanding what a business needs is a critical first step toward completing any software product implementation, so you'll learn how to write business requirements by learning about the various departments, roles, and processes in the client's organization. Once you've developed a solid understanding of NetSuite and your client, you’ll be able to apply your knowledge to configure accounts and test everything with the users. You’ll also learn how to manage both functional and technical issues that arise post-implementation and handle them like a professional. By the end of this book, you'll have gained the necessary skills and knowledge to implement NetSuite for businesses and get things up and running in the shortest possible time.

Summary

There are so many accounting and finance-related features in NetSuite that we couldn't possibly cover them all in this book. We learned about the general ledger, currencies, banking, and Journal Entries in this chapter. You will almost certainly learn more while implementing your clients, but hopefully, this chapter has gotten you started and given you some pointers in the right direction. To become more familiar with these features, read the Help pages and SuiteAnswers under the Accounting heading and stay up to date with new features as they are rolled out twice a year. And as always, there are lots of resources outside of NetSuite now as well.

In the next chapter, we will focus on the Procure to Pay transactions, such as purchases and receipts, vendor bills, and payments.
