NetSuite
Introducing the COZYROC SSIS+ library with support for integration and migration of NetSuite data. The NetSuite components are third-party plug-ins for Microsoft SSIS. Available on the market since 2012, COZYROC makes it easy to integrate or migrate data to and from NetSuite and will preserve the integrity of your data by always using the recommended SuiteTalk web services API. You can use any application, service or database supported by SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) or COZYROC’s toolkit as the source or destination for NetSuite data. The toolkit is easy to use and follows the same guidelines and principles used by the standard out-of-the-box SSIS components.
The NetSuite integration package consists of four parts:
- NetSuite Connection Manager
- Stores the credentials and functionality for connecting to the NetSuite service.
- Well documented API for use by user-defined scripts.
- NetSuite Source component
- Retrieves data from a NetSuite record.
- SearchXML criteria may be used to selectively retrieve records.
- Handles composite records by setting up one output for the main records and a separate output for the related composite records.
- The Record and the SearchXML criteria can be modified at runtime using variables and an expression.
- NetSuite Destination component
- Writes data to NetSuite records.
- Supports four actions on Objects: Create, Update, Delete or Upsert.
- Provides information about records with errors as well as the record identifier for records that were added, updated or deleted.
- The component can load composite records into the NetSuite service.
- Reusable scripts
- Unique technology which allows user-defined reusable scripts for additional NetSuite integration scenarios.
In this section we will show you how to set up a NetSuite Source component.
- Before you begin, configure a NetSuite connection manager.
- Drag the Data Flow Task from the SSIS Toolbox to the Control Flow canvas.
- Click the Data Flow tab to go to the Data Flow canvas.
- In the SSIS Toolbox, locate the NetSuite Source component and drag it onto the Data Flow canvas.
- Double-click on the component on the canvas.
- Once the component editor opens, in the Connection Managers tab, select the connection manager you configured earlier from the Connection drop-down list.
- Click on the Component Properties tab.
- For InputType, either select Record or SearchXML.
- If you selected Record, then select the record you want to work with from the drop-down list. Then jump to step 13.
- If you selected Statement, then click on the ellipsis next to the SearchXML parameter.
- Use the aids in the pop-up window to compose a SearchXML statement to retrieve the entity and records you want from the source. Alternatively, you may type your own SearchXML statement into the pop-up window. The statement should use the same XML format that is used in the NetSuite search method.
- Click OK to close the pop-up window.
