NetSuite

Polytomic connects to NetSuite using an Integration record and API-only role.

📘

NetSuite sandbox

Connecting Polytomic to a Netsuite sandbox is no different than connecting to a production instance; the same instructions apply. Indeed, if you have a Netsuite sandbox available we recommend you create two Netsuite connections in Polytomic: one to your sandbox for testing and one to your production instance.

Preparing NetSuite for Polytomic

Polytomic requires that web service-related features be enabled for your NetSuite account

To enable these features navigate to Setup → Company → Enable Features. The click the SuiteCloud tab.
