“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.”
NetSuite’s native export formats rarely match external auditor requirements, forcing you to spend hours reformatting data, reordering columns, and cleaning up internal IDs that auditors don’t need.
You can eliminate this reformatting work by creating standardized data extracts that match auditor templates from the start.
Create standardized auditor-ready data formats using Coefficient
Coefficient solves NetSuite’s formatting challenges through advanced customization features. You can reorder columns with drag-and-drop, select specific fields that align with audit requirements, and eliminate the CSV formatting issues that create inconsistent outputs. Custom fields format properly for external use, and date/time fields standardize automatically.
How to make it work
Step 1. Set up template-based imports that match auditor preferences.
Create import configurations that align with your auditors’ preferred formats. Use the field selection controls to choose only the data fields that auditors need, eliminating internal IDs and system codes that clutter standard NetSuite exports.
Step 2. Customize column headers and ordering for audit requirements.
Use the drag-and-drop column reordering feature to match your auditors’ template layouts exactly. Customize column headers to use auditor-friendly names instead of NetSuite’s internal field names.
Step 3. Configure consistent output formatting for all data types.
Set up direct Excel or Google Sheets integration to eliminate CSV formatting inconsistencies. This ensures that date fields, currency amounts, and text data display consistently across all audit data extracts.
Step 4. Use real-time preview to verify formatting before finalizing.
Take advantage of the real-time preview feature to verify that your data formatting matches auditor requirements before finalizing your imports. This eliminates the trial-and-error process of exporting, checking, and reformatting that typically accompanies NetSuite data preparation.
Eliminate repetitive data formatting tasks
Standardized data formatting creates audit-ready extracts that eliminate post-export reformatting work and ensure consistency across all audit data requests. Start creating your standardized audit data templates today.
