NetSuite + Nectar Integration

Sync employee data from NetSuite into Nectar automatically to power recognition, rewards, and engagement programs with accurate workforce data.

Eliminate manual employee imports and keep your culture platform aligned with your system of record.

Overview

The NetSuite + Nectar integration connects your ERP/HR system directly to Nectar, ensuring employee data remains accurate and up to date across your recognition and rewards platform.

This integration is ideal for:

• HR and Finance teams using NetSuite as their source of truth
• Growing or enterprise organizations managing complex org structures
• Companies that want streamlined employee onboarding and offboarding workflows

By integrating NetSuite with Nectar, organizations can automatically provision new employees, reflect reporting structure changes, and maintain clean access control — without manual uploads or spreadsheet management.

How It Works

Nectar integrates with NetSuite to sync core employee information into the platform.

What data syncs

Common employee fields include:

• First and last name
• Work email
• Job title
• Department
• Manager relationships
• Location
• Employment status (active/inactive)

Sync behavior

• Employees added in NetSuite can be automatically provisioned in Nectar
• Updates to roles, departments, or managers sync to maintain accurate org structure
• Terminated employees can be deactivated to preserve data integrity and reporting

Authentication method

The integration connects securely using API-based authentication with authorized admin credentials.

Where users interact

Admins configure the integration within Nectar’s settings. Employees experience Nectar normally — recognizing peers, redeeming rewards, and participating in engagement initiatives — powered by accurate synced employee data behind the scenes.
