Multi-Warehouse Inventory Management
Industrial distributors need accurate inventory visibility across every location. NetSuite supports bin-level inventory, transfer orders between facilities, and on-hand counts updated per transaction, so your operations and sales teams always know what is available, where it is, and when it can ship. Better inventory visibility means better fill rates and fewer stockouts on the items your customers depend on.
Customer-Specific Pricing and Contract Management
NetSuite handles matrix pricing, contract pricing, and customer-specific price lists at scale. Snapshot configures NetSuite to eliminate the manual overrides and spreadsheet lookups that slow down order entry and introduce errors. Your team can apply the right price to the right customer automatically, without workarounds.

High-SKU Item Management
Managing thousands of SKUs requires more than a clean catalog. Snapshot configures NetSuite to support vendor cross-references, alternate part numbers, and item substitution logic, so your team can find and sell the right product quickly regardless of how a customer asks for it.
EDI and Trading Partner Integration
Many industrial distributors are required to transact via EDI with large customers or suppliers. NetSuite integrates with EDI providers and middleware platforms to support standard transaction types including purchase orders, invoices, and advance ship notices. Snapshot accounts for EDI requirements during implementation planning, so integration timelines and data mapping are addressed before go-live, not after.
Vendor-Managed Inventory and Purchasing
NetSuite supports reorder points, min/max planning, and VMI workflows configured around your supplier relationships and lead times. Snapshot gives purchasing teams the data they need to avoid stockouts on critical items without carrying excess inventory through slow periods.
Key Account and Sales Team Support
Industrial distributors require reporting and visibility that helps sales teams manage large accounts, track open quotes, monitor order history, and flag at-risk customers before they churn. NetSuite gives your team the account-level visibility that key account management requires, along with commission tracking where that is relevant to your sales model.
NetSuite for Industrial Distribution in Action
Beno J. Gundlach Co., a family-owned manufacturer of professional installation tools serving a national distributor network, needed their new Shopify Plus B2B site to integrate fully with their existing NetSuite ERP. Snapshot implemented the Shopify Plus platform and engineered the NetSuite integration via Celigo, building a data flow that synced B2B companies and contacts from NetSuite into Shopify, and controlled access so only approved distributor accounts could log in, view pricing, and reach the shopping cart.
The result was a B2B commerce environment that runs off the same data as their ERP, with no manual account management and a consistent experience for their distributor network.
