NetSuite launches into new verticals
Wholesale and distribution get SaaS treatment.


NetSuite, which specialises in on-demand technology, today announced a new edition of its business application suite aimed at the wholesale and distribution industry vertical.
The enterprise resource planning (ERP), customer relationship management (CRM) and e-commerce application vendor has added new features including advanced inventory and order fulfilment, demand-based inventory replenishment, a transaction forms assistant and matrix item assistant, vendor returns and wholesale and distributor customer portals.
NetSuite says these features provide industry-specific capabilities while centralising the business processes of mid-sized wholesale or distribution companies to run their entire business cycle - from lead generation to sales orders and from warehouse and inventory management in multiple locations to shipping - with end-to-end accounting support.
One NetSuite user and distributor Endoscopy UK, a service contractor of medical equipment, said the software has allowed it to increasingly automate manually based processes.
