Quickbooks to NetSuite? Avoid These 5 Costly Mistakes

By: admin

If you’re moving from QuickBooks to NetSuite, you’re upgrading to a powerhouse ERP. Before your implementation, beware these landmines:

1️⃣ “We’ll migrate all our data!”
→ Bloated imports slow everything down. Smart fix: Only bring over open transactions + 2 years of history.

2️⃣ “Permissions? Just give everyone admin access.”
→ Chaos (and security risks) follow. NetSuite’s role-based controls are powerful but require strategy.

3️⃣ “Our old workflows will work fine.”
→ QuickBooks habits break in NetSuite. Example: Reconciliations run differently—train teams early.

4️⃣ “We don’t need custom fields.”
→ Missed reporting insights. NetSuite’s flexibility is a superpower if configured right.

5️⃣ “We’ll figure out integrations later.”
→ Bottlenecks pile up fast. Plan how tools like Shopify/Avalara will connect Day 1.
