The plugin reads bank account information from the Electronic Bank Payments details module within your vendor and employee records and automatically syncs it to the Payment Methods page.
For Accounts Payable (New) Pages
How It Works
The plugin reads bank account information from your NetSuite vendor/employee records and automatically syncs it to the Payment Methods page.
The sync process:
- The plugin syncs bank account information from NetSuite's Bank Payment Details tab to the Payment Methods page
- You can view all synced payment information on the Payment Methods page
- You can also add additional payment methods directly on the Payment Methods page (these stay within the plugin)
Important: Any changes you make to bank account information in NetSuite will automatically sync to the Payment Methods page.
