Managing Integrations
For many NetSuite clients, the ERP system is the central hub for a collection of applications they use to run their business. Data needs to move securely and efficiently between each application for a business to function. Every consultant needs to know how to talk to clients about integrations, as well as how to see them through development and testing. If you’re going to be more of a functional consultant, you might get a client started by talking about their integrations and then say, “…But I’m not the technical expert; for those details, we’ll have you work with our technical team.” In these cases, you still want to be familiar with these topics, so read on!
In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
- Talking to clients about integrations
- Collecting information about and documenting integrations
- Managing data coming into NetSuite
- Creating custom exports from NetSuite
