NetSuite API Connection

How the API Connection Works

Budgyt connects directly to NetSuite through a deep read-only API. It pulls the full COA hierarchy, department and dimension structures, and GL transactions – including memo fields, vendors, customers, and categories – straight into your budget environment.

Import When You’re Ready

NetSuite data flows into Budgyt when you pull it. You control when to import actuals, typically after the monthly close. Log in and pull the data in seconds when you’re ready. No scheduled syncs running overnight, no stale data sitting in a queue.

From First Import to Monthly Actuals

Import the entire financial structure once to set up your budget environment. After that, pull actuals whenever you need them. Posted to the wrong account in NetSuite? Make the correction and reimport right away. No waiting for a scheduled overnight sync. From there, actuals are ready for forecasting without an Excel file in sight.

How Budgyt Maps Your NetSuite Data

Automatic COA Mapping

Budgyt reads the full account hierarchy from NetSuite and recreates it automatically. Sub-accounts, parent-child relationships, and rollup structures all come through intact. No manual re-entry, no mapping tables to build or maintain.

Departments, Dimensions, and Rollups

NetSuite departments and dimensions (including sub-levels) flow directly into Budgyt’s structure. Budget and report by the same organizational layers you already use in NetSuite. Rollups at every level are handled automatically.

Subsidiaries, Locations, and Custom Dimensions

NetSuite dimensions map into Budgyt for organizational structure. Use locations, subsidiaries, vendors, and customers as budget dimensions. Budgyt maps these tracking categories automatically, so you can budget and analyze by any dimension already in NetSuite.

Drill Down to Vendor and Customer Level

Click any variance to drill down and see vendor/customer, date, memo, and dimension detail from NetSuite transactions. No need to go back into NetSuite to trace what’s driving a number.

Controlled Data Import

Any Date Range, Any Time

You’re not limited to a fixed lookback window. Import three years of history for trend analysis, or pull just one quarter for a targeted reforecast.

Summary or Detail, You Decide

Control the level of detail at a category level to avoid unnecessary clutter. You choose timeframes and categories for a complete historical perspective, without drowning in transaction-level noise where you don’t need it.

Pull Actuals After Your Close

After the monthly close, pull actuals in seconds. From there, compare budget to actual side-by-side and update your rolling forecast with real numbers.

Forecast Beyond What’s in NetSuite

Most APIs only allow you to work with the structure that already exists in your accounting system. Budgyt’s API lets you add new categories, departments, and dimensions for forecasting without creating them in NetSuite until they actually happen. When they’re ready, you simply map them across.
This keeps your accounting system of record clean and avoids unnecessary clutter. Since NetSuite charges by the number of dimensions, it saves money too. Most competitors don’t offer this.
