Managing a large number of vendors in the retail space can be challenging, especially when it comes to tracking and reconciling invoices. While NetSuite’s native functionality allows for creating customer statements, it doesn’t cover the creation and sending of vendor statements—an essential feature for many retail businesses.NetSuite Vendor Statement by Tvarana fills this gap. This SuiteApp provides a solution to streamline vendor management, allowing you to generate statements that include vendor invoices, bill payments, journals, and bill credits—all in one place. Just like NetSuite’s Customer Statements, Vendor Statement enables you to create and send statements to vendors, keeping them informed of outstanding invoices and improving payment management.
