SuiteDrive: Smarter File Management for NetSuite
Seamlessly Manage NetSuite Documents with Google Drive and SharePoint
SuiteDrive is a native NetSuite integration that lets you organize, upload, and manage files between NetSuite and external storage platforms like Google Drive and SharePoint. It gives you full control over your document management without overloading the File Cabinet — helping your business lower storage costs, improve collaboration, and eliminate system bloat. Built for flexibility and scale, SuiteDrive supports file syncing across any NetSuite record type and requires no additional licensing fees.

Built for NetSuite Users Who Need Smarter Document Storage
SuiteDrive is ideal for teams that rely on NetSuite but struggle with File Cabinet limitations or need advanced file management capabilities.
It’s the right fit for:
- Finance Teams managing invoices, receipts, and billing documents across multiple records.
- Sales Teams that need to attach contracts, agreements, and client files to opportunities or customer records.
- Procurement and Ops Teams storing vendor documents, purchase orders, or delivery receipts.
- IT Teams looking to reduce storage costs while improving security and permissions across records.
Whether you’re scaling your ERP or streamlining internal processes, SuiteDrive gives you the tools to manage files with ease.
Core Features
Upload Files from NetSuite to External Storage
Users can upload files directly from NetSuite records to designated folders in Google Drive or SharePoint without ever leaving the ERP system. This native integration reduces the need for downloads, re-uploads, or external document tracking—streamlining workflows and improving document accuracy.
Multiple File Uploads
SuiteDrive supports bulk uploads, allowing users to upload multiple files at once to external storage. Whether attaching invoices, receipts, contracts, or delivery notes, teams save valuable time by eliminating repetitive uploading and manual file handling.
Universal Record Compatibility
SuiteDrive works with virtually every standard and custom NetSuite record. Attach files to customer profiles, vendor records, sales and purchase orders, invoices, or even custom transaction types. No additional configuration is required. SuiteDrive dynamically adapts to your existing record structures and processes.
File Management Made Simple
Leverage NetSuite’s robust permissions structure to ensure data security. Maintain appropriate access levels while ensuring teams view only the information relevant to their role—without compromising visibility or compliance.
Role-Based Permissions and Access Control
Built with enterprise-grade governance in mind, SuiteDrive uses NetSuite’s permission framework to control who can upload, view, or delete files. Administrators can define access by role or user, ensuring sensitive documents remain protected and only the right team members can take action on them.
How It Works
SuiteDrive integrates directly into your NetSuite records, allowing users to upload, organize, and manage files within the familiar ERP interface—while storing them in Google Drive or SharePoint. Here’s a step-by-step look at how SuiteDrive works in practice:

Access Any Record in NetSuite
Users open a standard or custom record type (e.g., Customer, Sales Order, Invoice) where they want to attach files.
Click the SuiteDrive Tab
Within the record, users navigate to the SuiteDrive tab to view any existing documents or add new ones.
Upload Files to Google Drive or SharePoint
Users can select one or multiple files to upload. Files are stored directly in the linked external storage folder—automatically named and organized by record type and name (e.g., /Customers/John Smith/).
View, Rename, or Delete Files
All uploaded files are listed in a table under the SuiteDrive tab. Users can preview, rename, or delete files from the interface—actions are synced directly to the external storage platform.
Control File Access via Permissions
Access to upload, view, or delete files is controlled by user roles and permissions, ensuring appropriate document visibility and security within your NetSuite environment.
Migrate File Cabinet Content (Optional)
Admins can access a separate utility to select and transfer entire folders from NetSuite’s File Cabinet to Google Drive or SharePoint—reducing clutter and optimizing storage usage.
Why Use SuiteDrive Instead of NetSuite’s File Cabinet
SuiteDrive offers a modern alternative to NetSuite’s native File Cabinet—delivering greater flexibility, lower costs, and more advanced file handling across your ERP environment. Designed to work seamlessly with Google Drive and SharePoint, SuiteDrive simplifies document storage and unlocks enterprise-grade features for growing teams.
No Licensing or User Fees
SuiteDrive works out of the box without the need to purchase additional user licenses or subscriptions. Teams of any size can upload and access documents without incurring per-user costs.
Lower Storage Costs
NetSuite File Cabinet storage comes with limitations and high fees. SuiteDrive lets you offload documents to scalable, cost-efficient platforms like Google Drive or SharePoint—reducing expenses while expanding your storage capacity.
Scalable for Growing Teams
Our team brings deep NetSuite domain knowledge, ensuring not just a technical integration—but a business-aligned solution that supports your growth.
Better File Management and Collaboration
Cloud platforms like Google Drive and SharePoint are purpose-built for document management. With SuiteDrive, you benefit from advanced search, real-time collaboration, version history, and shared access—all accessible through your NetSuite records.
Built to Streamline Your NetSuite Workspace
By offloading bulky attachments from the File Cabinet, SuiteDrive helps keep your NetSuite instance lean and performant—while maintaining full visibility and accessibility of your documents across departments.
