As the world enters the era of digital transformation, healthcare organizations are no exception in experiencing certain difficulties, one of which is organizing sales orders effectively. It is essential to consider several systems for smooth work, but the use of conventional integration tools can be challenging and time-consuming.
This blog focuses on how we recently helped a top-tier US healthcare client to implement an integration between Salesforce and NetSuite through the Workato integration platform, with a particular focus on work automating the sales order creation process and synchronizing the data bi-directionally.
The Challenge: Streamlining Sales Order Creation
Our client, a leading company in the USA healthcare industry, used Salesforce for their sales processes and NetSuite for managing their finances and orders. However, the two main systems needed to be integrated, and therefore the following problems arose which affected the processing of sales orders; errors and delays due to manual data entry. They needed a solution that could:
1. Ensure that sales orders are automatically generated in NetSuite from Salesforce.
2. Minimise errors and avoid over-reliance on manual data input and processing.
3. Synchronization of customer records in Salesforce if there are any changes in Netsuite.
4. These objectives are feasible to accomplish in the short term without much coding.

The Solution: Leveraging Workato for Low-Code Integration
To solve these issues, we used Workato as our smart integration and automation platform. Due to Workato’s low-code/no-code interface, the integration was built and deployed in a short time — no traditional, time-consuming integration work. Here’s how we did it:
1. Sales Order Creation Automation
With the help of Workato, we connected Salesforce and NetSuite, and, as a result, sales order creation was automated. In this step, after a deal is closed in Salesforce, Workato automatically creates the sales order in NetSuite accordingly. This automation also helps to ensure that the creation of sales orders is fast and accurate, thus eliminating other issues such as delays in the process.
2. Bi-Directional Sync for Data Accuracy
As one of the major highlights of the implemented solution, there is two-way integration between Salesforce and NetSuite. All the modifications done to the customer accounts in NetSuite are synchronized into Salesforce. This is done by creating and maintaining a custom field in the Salesforce Account record that is kept in sync with NetSuite. This bidirectional synchronization guarantees that both systems have accurate current information, thus improving data quality in business decisions.
The Impact: Efficiency and Future-Readiness
The integration had a profound impact on our client’s operations, delivering several key benefits: The integration had a profound impact on our client’s operations, delivering several key benefits:
