**Your primer on the NetSuite integration and how it works with the Alternative Payments platform.**

NetSuite is a cloud-based suite of business management applications designed to help companies manage their core business processes, including financial management, enterprise resource planning (ERP), customer relationship management (CRM), and e-commerce.

For partners using NetSuite, you can connect it to your Alternative Payments partner dashboard to sync invoices to our platform and auto-reconcile invoice payments back to NetSuite directly.

You will be redirected to select "Allow" the connection. Finally, you will be prompted to confirm your company. You will then be redirected back to your Alternative Payments dashboard.&#x20;

5. **Initial Sync + Account Set Up**: In the Integrations section of your partner dashboard, the status will display as "Pending" until the sync process is complete.

   * Initially, the system will sync the last 12 months of data.
   * Once this is complete, it will proceed to sync all historical data.

   \
   When the sync is finished, the status will update to "Connected". At this point, you can:

   1. Click Set Up Accounts within the NetSuite module.
   2. Select Undeposited Funds to record your payments.
   3. Choose the bank account where you receive payouts to record your deposits.

This setup ensures accurate recording and reconciliation of payments and deposits.

That’s it — you’re all set 🥳!
