Introduction:

Shopify is a popular ecommerce platform among small and mid-sized businesses due to its low-cost simplicity for running and maintaining online retail platforms. With countless templates, plugins, and back-end apps, the platform allows you to run a successful online business with ease. But as the business scales, they need to look for solutions to help them manage the increasing complexity of their financials, operations, warehousing, sales, and more.  

On the other hand NetSuite is one of the leading customer experience management solutions providers; it also offers powerful tools for ERP, CRM, financial management, and ecommerce.

Many Shopify merchants don’t realize that operating with standalone software systems is holding their online business back. Having an ERP like NetSuite is an extremely important investment in operations. Integration between Shopify and NetSuite helps in managing operations and payoffs for both your customers and operations. Integration of both systems allows the flow of data and hence helps automate various processes like pricing updates, order fulfillment, etc. It enables you to save time through automation, and therefore you can spend more time on projects that matter more to you. Without integration, the NetSuite implementation is likely costing you more than you realize.

With the Shopify store at the front end and NetSuite at the back end, you can process and manage customer orders independently. 

Integration improves customer’s experience by smoothly running the back end processes. It enables you to deliver the order at the guaranteed time, shipping the right product, and avoid overselling and hence delivers a consistent experience to your audience. This builds a trusting relationship between your customer and your brand. You will get repeated purchases from existing customers. Hence, this Shopify NetSuite integration is a win-win situation for everyone. 

For example, when a customer places an order in Shopify, it’s routed to NetSuite for sales order creation and fulfillment. Then, integration platforms like DBSync updates Shopify with order status and tracking numbers from NetSuite, and ensures your NetSuite general ledger is updated with the sale.
