With the ever-growing functionality of business intelligence and accounting software, it is no surprise that businesses have more access to data now than ever before. From being able track income and expenses to having transactions categorized; businesses can take their pick when it comes to tapping into the numbers.
Gone are the days that important decisions are made from Excel reports that don’t reflect the most recent numbers within an organization. NetSuite’s comprehensive data abilities, that range from billing and invoicing to categorizing data analysis, provides real-time metrics and updates reports with the latest figures, as they happen.

NetSuite’s data functionality is designed to collect, process and aggregate numbers. Because businesses need to digest the numbers into meaningful reports that make it easier to understand what the data means, management can leverage the full data potential of the software by tapping into NetSuite Planning and Budgeting Smart View for Microsoft Office which aids in transforming data to meaningful reports.
