How to import Chart of Accounts from NetSuite

You can find the list of your Chart of Accounts by going to Lists —> Accounting —> Accounts.

Note: in Precoro, you can import Accounts only as Items Custom Field (you’ll be able to select accounts on the items’ level).

To import Accounts from your NetSuite account to your company in Precoro, you should follow these steps:

1. Firstly, make sure that your Accounts are associated with the integrated Subsidiary;

2. Then go to your NetSuite integration page and click the Import Chart of Accounts button;

3. Select those Accounts that should be imported or click "Select all" (if you need to integrate all ones);

4. Click the Import button;

5. Congratulations — the Accounts list has been imported. 

Please note: only Accounts that are associated with the integrated Subsidiary will be imported to Precoro.  

Accounts types that can be integrated with Precoro

By default, only the following Accounts types are supported by Precoro:

• Expenses
• Other Expenses

What to do if you need to integrate Accounts that have other types:

• Ensure that the Expand Account List setting is enabled in your NetSuite account. You can check it by going to Setup —> Accounting —> Preferences section —> Accounting Preferences —> General tab
  

• If this setting is enabled — please, contact your Customer Success Manager

Note: the integration of accounts of other types can take some time — check it with your manager.
