Using Purchase Orders within Oracle NetSuite? Try out our Purchase Order sync feature!
You'll still continue to create and manage Purchase Orders (PO) in Oracle NetSuite, but now you can sync them through to Bill.com and link or match them to bills. We'll automatically pre-fill certain items from the PO using artificial intelligence.

Is there anything else I need to setup in Oracle Netsuite?
- Bundle 3.3.6o or newer is required to sync PO's with Oracle NetSuite successfully. To check which version you're on or to update the bundle, follow the instructions here.
How many POs will be synced over?
- By default, we sync in open POs you created in the last three months from your accounting software to Bill.com. If you want to sync even earlier POs to Bill.com, make an update to the PO in question (Edit & Save) and sync again. If you have a large list of older PO's, please contact our customer success team and we will assist you.
Which POs are synced in from Oracle NetSuite?
- With Oracle NetSuite, we sync in POs that are "pending receipt", “partially received”, or "pending bill/partially received", "pending bill", and "fully billed".
- If Oracle NetSuite is setup to receive items on a PO, the status will not be updated to "filled" in Bill.com until items are received in Oracle NetSuite, even if a bill is attached to the PO in Bill.com
- The PO will have a "receive" button in Oracle NetSuite if it is setup for item receipt
- If a bill is created in Bill.com and linked to a PO that has not yet been marked as received in Oracle NetSuite, "Bill in Advance of Receipt" needs to be enabled Oracle NetSuite, or the bill will cause a sync error and will not sync to Oracle NetSuite (see article at the bottom of this page)
- We don't support expense type POs. If the PO is coded to expenses instead of items, it WILL sync into Bill.com but cannot be linked to a bill.
Are International currency POs supported?
- This feature is for POs in USD only.
Will GL account updates on bills linked to POs in Bill.com sync back to Oracle NetSuite?
- Yes, you can add additional expenses and/or items to a bill linked to a PO in Bill.com and that detail will sync back to Netsuite.
Will GL accounts on POs be available to link to a bill in Bill.com?
- No, Bill.com only supports using items on POs when linking to a bill in Bill.com. If you use GL accounts on your POs, do not link to a bill in Bill.com. Instead, create the bill from the PO in Netsuite and that bill will sync into Bill.com including all GL accounts on it.
Will the item receipt created from a PO sync into Bill.com?
- The item receipt created from a PO will not sync to Bill.com.
- Creating an item receipt will update the status of the PO in Oracle NetSuite, the PO status update will sync and update the status of the PO in Bill.com
Can I link multiple bills to one PO?
- Yes, you can link multiple bills to one PO
Can I link a bill to multiple PO's?
- We do not support linking a bill to multiple PO's within Bill.com. If creating a bill linked to multiple PO's within NetSuite, the bill will sync to Bill.com but the PO linkage will not be reflected.
Can I unlink a bill from a PO?
- After a bill has an associated PO and has synced between Oracle NetSuite and Bill.com, you will be unable to unlink them. This is because the accounting system should be the system of record. If you need to unlink a PO from a bill, the bill will need to be deleted and a new bill created to link to the correct PO.
Is Smart Data available for bills linked to POs?
- Smart Data is not available on bills linked to POs, to prevent items from previous POs from auto populating in bills
- Smart Data is available for bills that are not linked to POs
Does Bill.com support creating, deleting, editing or approving POs?
- Not currently. We are exploring additional ways to serve the needs of our customers.
Do you plan on making this feature available for other accounting softwares?
- We are always assessing our accounting software integrations for enhancements.
I am using Oracle NetSuite and I don't see this feature in my account, can I request to have it enabled?
- Contact Support to let us know you're interested.
Can I disable the Purchase Order feature?
If you currently have POs enabled no longer want to use them, you can disable them in settings, if you are an admin user.
