Integrated NetSuite Financial and Operational Data
When it comes to budgeting, planning, and forecasting, spreadsheets fall short in the areas of collaborative planning, information management, and scenario modelling. Cloud-based planning and budgeting solutions, on the other hand, benefit the whole organization and not just the finance and accounting team over the long term.
Obtaining success in corporate performance modelling, foresight, and reporting may be very difficult, especially when considering changes in consumer demand, supply-chain delays, and the growth of subscription-based businesses. And without a precise and dependable data flow between your transactional systems and your planning solution, your leadership will often be unable to make decisions fast enough to make use of all of the information at their fingertips.
Accounting and finance teams can automate time-consuming processes using the NetSuite Planning and Budgeting module, allowing them to create budgets and forecasts quickly and easily. It makes it easy for finance teams to develop budgets and forecasts and produce reports, all inside a single, scalable system, using what-if scenarios and other tools. Real-time financial and operational data allows finance teams to have more control, collaborate more effectively, and improve their visibility in their organizations.
You can save time by integrating NetSuite’s planning and budgeting solution with NetSuite project management, financials, and an external timekeeping system. Employees will be able to devote their time to delivering financial reports and financial analysis rather than paperwork. NetSuite Planning and Budgeting is a prominent cloud-based solution for budgeting and forecasting in the midmarket market.
Office programs such as Outlook, Excel, Word, and PowerPoint work smoothly with Smart View for Office. If you want to conduct ad hoc modelling or add custom members on the fly, Excel can help you accomplish that. When working with planning data grids in Microsoft Excel, two typical financial planning procedures are spreading and allocating money. With NetSuite Planning and Budgeting solution, Indirect cost allocations can be automated. This gives you more visibility into your planning process, enables you to understand real profitability, and creates a single centre for automating all allocation-based company operations.
It won’t be wise to not have NetSuite integrated into your current operational model with so many benefits. You can have Folio3, a certified NetSuite partner, integrate and implement a customized NetSuite system for your business that’s tailored to your business needs to absolute perfection.
