The SuiteApp enables you to perform the following tasks:
- Configure your SFTP connection directly on your format profile record.
Connect to your financial institution’s server by setting up your banking credentials. Specify a file name pattern that the system will use to match from your financial institution to import bank statement files into NetSuite.
- Automate the daily importing of bank statement files into NetSuite.
The first time a format profile for SFTP connectivity is saved, a schedule is created to import your bank statement files automatically. Every day, NetSuite imports any new data from your financial institution into your accounts on the Match Bank Data page. This added functionality lets finance users to focus more on reconciling the bank and credit card transactions between NetSuite and your financial institutions.
- Perform manual trigger of the bank statement files import process for real-time bank data update.
There’s a few limitations to the App, such as the App does not support IP address allowlisting, importing of bank statement files that are in.zip format, and importing of PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) encrypted files.
The App itself is simple to install.
- Make sure the following are enabled in Enable Features à SuiteCloud tab.
- Custom Records
- Client SuiteScripts
- Server SuiteScripts
