Projects (Projects) Export Workflow
The Projects (Projects) export workflow lets you create new project records in SuiteProjects Pro first and then export them to NetSuite.
You can use the Update NetSuite Projects with SuiteProjects Pro Project Data export workflow to update project records in SuiteProjects Pro and run the integration to update the project records in NetSuite. See Update NetSuite Projects with SuiteProjects Pro Project Data Export Workflow.
You can also use the Projects (Projects) import workflow to:
-
Create new project records in NetSuite first and then import them into SuiteProjects Pro. See Projects (Projects) Export Workflow.
-
Update project records in NetSuite and use the NetSuite <> SuiteProjects Pro integration to update the corresponding project record in SuiteProjects Pro.
-
Create project templates in SuiteProjects Pro, select an SuiteProjects Pro Project Template when creating a new project in NetSuite. When you import the project into SuiteProjects Pro, the SuiteProjects Pro project contains project-related information copied from the template. The information copied from the project template can include tasks, assignments, billing rules, loaded costs, revenue recognition rules, auto-bill settings, project approvers, and more.
