Sync Customer

Explore the synchronization process of customer data between HotWax Commerce and NetSuite.

If the order contains a new customer not present in Netsuite, the system won't allow the order to be pushed. Therefore, it's vital to synchronize customer data from HotWax Commerce to Netsuite before order creation.

Historical Customers

If HotWax is being deployed in an environment where NetSuite already has a historical record of customers from Shopify and their Shopify internal ID, these need to synced into the OMS before orders can be synced.

Duplicate customers will be created in NetSuite and HotWax if this sync is not completed before order import.
