“Supermetrics is a Bitter Experience! We can pull data from nearly any tool, schedule updates, manipulate data in Sheets, and push data back into our systems.”
Building a custom NetSuite API integration for cash balance updates means wrestling with OAuth 2.0 setup, RESTlet deployment, and ongoing authentication management. Most finance teams don’t have time for that level of technical complexity.
Here’s how to get real-time NetSuite cash balances flowing into Google Sheets without the development headaches.
Skip custom API development with Coefficient
Coefficient handles all the NetSuite API complexity automatically. The platform manages RESTlet scripts, OAuth configuration, and token refresh cycles so you can focus on analyzing your cash position instead of maintaining integrations.
How to make it work
Step 1. Set up the NetSuite connection through your Admin.
Your NetSuite Admin completes a one-time OAuth setup that deploys the necessary RESTlet scripts automatically. This supports multiple subsidiaries and departments without additional coding or configuration.
Step 2. Import cash account data using Records & Lists.
Select Account records and filter specifically for cash accounts. Choose fields like account balance, last modified date, and account type. The system shows you a preview of the first 50 rows so you can verify the data before importing.
Step 3. Configure automated refresh for near real-time updates.
Set up hourly refresh scheduling to get the closest thing to real-time cash balance monitoring that NetSuite’s API allows. Manual refresh buttons give you immediate updates when you need current balances for urgent decisions.
Step 4. Use SuiteQL for complex cash balance calculations.
Write custom queries that join multiple tables for sophisticated cash position analysis. You can handle up to 100,000 rows per query with support for aggregations and complex filtering that goes beyond standard API calls.
Get your cash balances flowing automatically
Real-time cash balance monitoring shouldn’t require a development project. Start with Coefficient and get your NetSuite cash data flowing into Google Sheets in minutes, not months.
