NetSuite Connector Syncs for Efficient Data Management

The NetSuite Connector facilitates efficient synchronization of essential eCommerce data. It supports the following syncs, enabling operations to manage data flow between storefronts and NetSuite effectively:

• Order Sync: Orders are transferred from your storefront to the NetSuite Connector and subsequently into NetSuite, ensuring all sales data is centralized. This process includes syncing fulfillment information back from NetSuite.
• Refund Sync (or Amazon Settlement Sync): This sync handles refund transactions, improving the accuracy of financial data and customer transaction records.
