How Bluebook Works with NetSuite

Bluebook integrates seamlessly with NetSuite through secure API connections, respecting your existing permissions and approval hierarchies. When vendor bills arrive in NetSuite—whether through email ingestion, AP automation, or vendor portals—Bluebook's AI agents immediately analyze them for appropriate accounting treatment, working 24/7 to keep your books current.

For transactions requiring accrual treatment or prepaid amortization, the system generates complete journal entries with supporting documentation. All AI-generated entries are sent to your centralized workspace inbox where you can easily review, comment, approve, or reject them before they post to NetSuite. This human-in-the-loop approach ensures accuracy while eliminating hours of manual work.
