Extending NetSuite to support your Planning and Budgeting process

Are you struggling to collect and consolidate your budget data through Excel? Do you find comparing budget versions and actuals a tedious job? Are you aiming to make ‘what if’ analyses easy, or do you find it difficult to understand the underlying arguments of the financial figures? All issues we hear regularly from our clients. Extending your NetSuite software to include NetSuite Planning and Budgeting helps you to make the most out of your budgeting process.

Structuring your planning and budgeting process

Often, we see that companies aiming to take their budgeting process to the next level encounter the limits of Excel. Moving to an automated tool to collect your budget or forecast data in a structured and consistent way helps you understand the final result. Also, it enables you to make (central) adjustments to the financial figures and perform what if analyses.

 At the same time, you don’t want to lose understanding of how the figures are built. Often, this starts with gathering budget related information from stakeholders. Wouldn’t it be easier if they could enter the data directly in a way they understand? For example, how many products do they sell against which price, or how much FTE do they need next year? The revenue and costs then would just be calculated by the system.

As a (group) finance controller, you’d be able to focus on the core of your activities: comparing and analyzing the data. Not only during the budget process but also later, when you need to analyze and understand discrepancies with the actual figures.
