NetSuite ⇔ D&H Integration

Native NetSuite integration with D&H Distributing

Overview

D&H Distributing is one of the most channel-focused IT distributors in North America, deeply embedded with SMB-focused VARs and solution providers. For NetSuite customers ordering through D&H, the back-office workflow can be the difference between a profitable order and one that consumed the margin in operations time. Catalyst's NetSuite ⇔ D&H integration — part of Catalyst VAR Connect — automates the full ordering, fulfillment, and billing workflow between NetSuite and D&H, natively inside NetSuite.

The Challenge

The unintegrated D&H workflow is the same story as every distributor: log in, place the order, retype confirmations, wait for shipment, retype tracking and serials, hand-build item receipts, hand-build vendor bills, and reconcile any line-level price differences manually. The ops team becomes a data-entry team, and order velocity gets capped by the number of people you can throw at it.

The Solution

The integration handles the full D&H flow inside NetSuite:

• Electronic POs — sent from NetSuite to D&H automatically
• Real-time confirmations — order numbers, ETAs, and confirmations sync back
• Tracking and serials — captured automatically
• Item Receipts and Fulfillments — generated from D&H data
• Vendor Bills — imported with line-level detail
• Variance analysis — flag price differences before they hit the GL

Native to NetSuite. No middleware. No export-import scripts.

Key Capabilities

• Native NetSuite SuiteApp (Catalyst VAR Connect)
• Automated PO submission to D&H
• Real-time order status, ETAs, tracking, serials
• Automated Item Receipts, Item Fulfillments, Vendor Bills

Benefits for NetSuite Users

D&H orders flow through NetSuite without manual intervention. Operations teams reclaim hours per week. Finance gets vendor bills with line detail they can actually reconcile. Pricing variances get surfaced and resolved before they become writeoffs. And reps and customers get the order status visibility they expect.

Who It's For

VARs, IT solution providers, MSPs, and resellers running NetSuite who order through D&H Distributing. Particularly valuable for SMB-focused channel partners with high D&H volume.
