1) I don't have Employees created in Netsuite, how can I complete the Employee mapping in configurations?

To successfully export the expenses from Sage Expense Management to Netsuite, the Sage Expense Management integration would need a Vendor or Employee to be created/mapped from Netsuite.

  • If your employees are set up as vendors in Netsuite, you can map the employees in Sage Expense Management to Vendors in Netsuite in the configuration.
