Getting Power BI to Match Your NetSuite GL

Trust comes first

A dashboard that’s 2% off the GL is worse than no dashboard — finance stops trusting it entirely. The first milestone of any build should be a P&L in Power BI that reconciles to the penny against the NetSuite trial balance.

How we tie out

We validate against posting transactions, respect the accounting period, and handle consolidated exchange rates the way NetSuite does. Then we document the reconciliation so anyone can re-run it after a close.

Only once the numbers match do we layer on the visuals, drill-downs, and self-service.
