Traditional NetSuite automated exports rely on CSV or PDF formats, each with significant limitations. CSV files lose formatting and require manual processing, while PDFs are static and difficult to manipulate for analysis.

Here’s how to get optimal data presentation and usability without worrying about file format conversion or compatibility issues.

Skip format conversion with direct NetSuite connectivity using Coefficient

Coefficient eliminates data format concerns by providing direct NetSuite connectivity with proper formatting and data types preserved. You get live data integration that maintains field relationships without format conversion overhead.

How to make it work

Step 1. Access NetSuite data with preserved formatting and relationships.

NetSuite data appears directly in Google Sheets with proper data types maintained. Date/time fields automatically format as dates, numerical data preserves precision for financial calculations, and text fields maintain full content without truncation.

Step 2. Import using optimal methods for your data requirements.

Use Records & Lists for direct field selection with proper data typing, SuiteQL Queries for custom data formatting with 100K row capacity, Reports for standard financial reports with native formatting, or Saved Searches to maintain search logic and result formatting.

Step 3. Enable full spreadsheet functionality on live NetSuite data.

Access complete Google Sheets formulas, charts, and collaboration features on live data that refreshes automatically. This eliminates the limitations of static CSV exports or non-manipulable PDF reports.

Step 4. Handle custom fields and complex data types automatically.

Coefficient provides full support for NetSuite custom fields (with limited exceptions) while maintaining proper data types. Complex field relationships and hierarchies are preserved without manual format conversion.
