What is NetSuite Customization?
Each business has a specific set of needs and operating guidelines, all of which are ever-changing as the business expands. That’s why the NetSuite SuiteCloud platform made it possible for companies and developers to further extend and enhance the functionalities of NetSuite to address their dynamic requirements.
Some of the customization features that NetSuite offers include being able to create custom scripts to automate or do specialized tasks, customize or create new user interfaces that show relevant information more effectively, as well as extending forms and lists into any custom page. NetSuite has a robust role-based framework for managing permissions throughout your account, allowing a more granular control over user access levels to ensure better access to pertinent data, all while maintaining account security.
NetSuite also offers custom printed documents, a feature which allows users to create branded PDF or HTML templates in any language, which is very useful when generating and sending invoices and receipts to customers.
All of these features ensure that users are able to meet each and every business demand by letting them customize end-to-end business processes and develop new functionalities and workflows that provide employees with the proper tools needed to complete daily tasks. This equates to better transparency and control and optimized end user experiences.
Common Customizations Include:
SuiteScript — This allows the user to develop new functions, customize processes and workflows, and even entire applications, all built with JavaScript, and host them on NetSuite.
SuiteTalk — This is a web service integration tool that allows you to extend NetSuite to legacy systems and third party vertical applications.
SuiteBuilder — This allows users to quickly customize and configure NetSuite forms, fields, and records. It allows developers to extend the functionality of default transaction types or records and design applications that allow for better collection, storage, and analysis of data.
With the multitude of ways that businesses can utilize NetSuite, it might become daunting and complex to handle in-house. It’s time to call the cavalry.
Enter: Independent Consultants
The freelancing world has seen a huge spike in recent years. From graphic and web designers to tech support, more and more professionals are putting themselves out there to help businesses looking to outsource work that they can’t handle in-house. With more and more businesses adopting e-commerce and NetSuite as their preferred ERP, the need for independent consultants has risen over the years. But what benefit does hiring independent consultants have over NetSuite partners?
Benefits
Reduced cost — You only need to pay for the work needed to be done, whether project-based or hourly basis, depending on your contract with the consultant. They are also relatively more affordable than NetSuite partners or hiring in-house developers.
No delay/overhead — No need to go through the meticulous process of sourcing, hiring, onboarding, or training new staff. A NetSuite consultant is already an expert in their specialization and can work right away.
Saves time and effort — With these extra customization tasks outsourced to an independent consultant, businesses can focus and assign in-house manpower on more important day-to-day operations.
Expertise and experience — When you hire certified NetSuite professionals, you are assured of their deep understanding of the functionalities and features of NetSuite. They can readily design and provide custom solutions without needing additional training from their clients.
