NetSuite Amazon Integration: Connectors for Seller Central and Vendor Central
Last updated: November 4, 2026 · Independent buyer’s guide · We do not sell rankings or coverage.
A NetSuite Amazon connector moves Amazon orders, FBA inventory levels and settlement data into NetSuite, and sends item data, stock and shipment confirmations back to Amazon. Your main choices are Oracle’s NetSuite Connector (which has separate Seller Central and Vendor Central connectors), an iPaaS integration app such as Celigo’s, a SuiteApp such as Folio3’s, or a settlement-only accounting tool such as A2X paired with a separate order integration. The right choice depends less on order volume than on how you sell (Seller Central, Vendor Central or both), how much of your stock sits in FBA, and how your finance team wants Amazon payouts to land in the general ledger.
Key takeaways
- Seller Central and Vendor Central need different integrations: orders, FBA and settlements on one side, Amazon purchase orders, ship notices and invoices on the other.
- Oracle’s NetSuite Connector imports merchant-fulfilled orders as sales orders and FBA orders as cash sales once Amazon ships them, and it syncs only Amazon’s available FBA quantity, not in-transit or reserved stock.
- Decide early whether settlements post as per-order transactions (NetSuite Connector, Celigo payments and refunds) or as one summarized journal entry per settlement (A2X, Celigo’s journal entry flow). That choice shapes your month-end close more than any other setting.
- Only A2X publishes prices among these options ($29 to $1,499 per month by Amazon order volume). NetSuite Connector, Celigo, Folio3 and SPS Commerce quote privately.
- Whatever tool you choose, run Amazon payouts through a clearing account and match each bank deposit to a settlement to the cent.
Seller Central and Vendor Central are two different integrations
On Seller Central you are the seller of record. Amazon sends you orders, charges you referral and FBA fees, and pays you a net settlement. Oracle describes Vendor Central as the platform where you sell your stock directly to Amazon and Amazon resells it, which makes it a B2B relationship (Oracle, no date shown).
That difference changes what your connector must do. A Seller Central integration handles many small consumer orders, FBA stock and settlements. A Vendor Central integration handles purchase orders from Amazon that you must acknowledge, ship and invoice. Amazon exposes Vendor Central documents through its Vendor Retail Procurement APIs, including an Invoices API that submits invoices for shipped items and credit notes for returns, price corrections and allowances (Amazon SP-API, September 9, 2026). Many vendors exchange the same documents as EDI instead.
How Amazon data flows into NetSuite
Orders
Merchant-fulfilled (MFN) orders import as sales orders once paid. FBA orders import as cash sales once Amazon ships them, because they need no fulfillment in NetSuite. Seller Fulfilled Prime orders import as sales orders that you fulfill yourself, and an order containing both MFN and FBA lines is split by Amazon before it syncs (Oracle, no date shown).
The same FAQ says Amazon does not provide buyer names and addresses for FBA orders through its API, so FBA orders should post to a fixed customer. The FBA shipping date is also not available through the API.
FBA inventory
FBA stock lives in Amazon’s network, so you set it up in NetSuite as its own location. Oracle says shipping a transfer order removes stock from your warehouse, the stock sits in transit with no location, and it becomes available at the FBA location when the receipt posts. Under-receipts post at Amazon’s lower quantity, and over-receipts produce an error (Oracle, no date shown).
Ongoing FBA levels come from a separate Inventory Adjustment sync, which Oracle says may cost extra. Oracle states the connector cannot map Amazon’s reserved quantity and that in-transit stock does not count as available. Amazon’s own FBA inventory summary call is limited to 2 requests per second (Amazon SP-API, September 9, 2026).
Settlements and fees
Amazon generates settlement reports on its own schedule. They “cannot be requested or scheduled,” and integrations retrieve the Flat File V2 settlement report through the Reports API (Amazon SP-API, October 14, 2026). Each report nets sales, refunds, fees, reimbursements and reserve movements to one deposit.
Reserves often confuse the bank reconciliation. An Amazon Seller Forums moderator explains that the default reserve holds funds until seven days after the delivery date (often called DD+7) and that Amazon can extend it based on risk and performance (Amazon Seller Forums, no exact date shown). Our guide to Amazon seller accounting covers the fee accounts and reserve entries in detail.
Where NetSuite Amazon integrations go wrong
- Settlement history ages out. Oracle says NetSuite Connector stores only the most recent three months of settlement reports, so a backlog of unreconciled periods can become hard to rebuild.
- Fees post per item. Commission applies per item, so the same fee type can appear several times on one order. Oracle says lump-sum summarization per settlement requires a request to NetSuite Customer Support.
- Tax lands on fee items that are not on a nontaxable tax schedule.
- Lot and serial items block merged refunds. Oracle’s settlement settings page says Amazon does not send the inventory detail NetSuite needs, so merged refunds cannot be created for lot- or serial-numbered items (Oracle, no date shown).
- Regions need separate connectors. One unified account can sync orders for marketplaces in the same region, such as the US, Canada and Mexico, but product sync for a non-primary marketplace and any second region needs another connector.
- Cash lands in a later period. Oracle recommends holding FBA cash sales in Undeposited Funds until Amazon settles.
Unless another source is cited, the points above come from Oracle’s Amazon Connector FAQ (Oracle, no date shown).
NetSuite Amazon connector options
Oracle NetSuite Connector (native add-on)
NetSuite Connector is Oracle’s add-on module for storefronts and marketplaces, and Oracle lists Amazon Seller Central and Amazon Vendor Central among its marketplaces (NetSuite, no date shown). The Seller Central connector covers orders, FBA items, inventory adjustments, Seller Fulfilled Prime, multi-channel fulfillment and settlement sync (Oracle, no date shown). Settlement sync posts fees not tied to an order, such as FBA warehouse fees, as cash sales or refunds against a settlement customer, and can post order-linked expenses as vendor bills (Oracle, no date shown).
For Vendor Central, each Amazon purchase order becomes a NetSuite sales order, typed as Direct Fulfillment or Retail Procurement, and you can auto-acknowledge it or approve it manually with reduced quantities (Oracle, no date shown). Strength: one vendor for ERP and connector. Limitations: a fixed data model, some features that need a support request, and no published price.
Celigo Amazon Seller Central integration app (iPaaS)
Celigo’s integration app syncs MFN, FBA and Seller Fulfilled Prime orders, cancellations and inventory, with add-ons for FBA inventory, FBA returns, inbound shipment plans and multiple accounts. Celigo says it reconciles settlement reports into NetSuite journal entries and creates payments, refunds and credit memos (Celigo, June 15, 2026; Celigo sells this product).
Strength: monitoring and retries across Amazon and your other systems. Limitation: the settlement entry mirrors Amazon’s report, so sales and fees post as separate clearing lines, and a reply on Celigo’s forum says consolidating them is not available out of the box (Celigo Connective, March 13, 2026). The product page does not mention Vendor Central.
A2X (settlement accounting only)
A2X works alongside your existing order and inventory integrations rather than replacing them. It turns each settlement into a summarized journal entry that reconciles to the payout (A2X, no date shown; A2X sells this product). Its NetSuite help article says entries post manually or automatically, but that SuiteTax tax mappings, A2X’s average-cost COGS feature and tracking codes are not supported for NetSuite, and that you map accounts yourself (A2X, April 7, 2025).
Folio3 Amazon connector (partner SuiteApp)
Folio3 sells a SuiteApp connector for orders, inventory, FBA and FBM, tracking, refunds and cancellations, with non-US marketplaces requiring customization (Folio3, no date shown; Folio3 sells this product). The page does not mention settlement reconciliation or Vendor Central, and it publishes no prices.
EDI providers for Vendor Central
If several retailers already send you EDI purchase orders, your EDI provider can add Amazon. SPS Commerce says its Fulfillment EDI for NetSuite is part of the Built for NetSuite program and supports advance ship notices for all fulfillment models (SPS Commerce, May 6, 2026; SPS sells this product). Credit notes and allowances against your Vendor Central invoices need their own tracking, which our guide to deductions management software covers.
Comparison: NetSuite Amazon connector options

| A2X | None (accounting only) | One summarized journal entry per settlement | $29 to $1,499 per month for Amazon by order volume; NetSuite availability by request |
| Folio3 Amazon connector | Orders, inventory, FBA and FBM; US marketplace standard | Not described on product page | Not published |
| SPS Commerce EDI | Vendor-side purchase orders and ship notices, not Seller Central | Not applicable (Vendor Central uses invoices, not settlements) | Not published |
What NetSuite Amazon integration costs
A2X is the only option here with a public price list. Its Amazon plans run from $29 per month (Mini, up to 200 orders) and $79 per month (Standard, up to 5,000 orders) to $1,499 per month (Premium, up to 250,000 orders), with custom pricing above that. The page also states that prices for plans other than Mini increase from November 14, 2026 (A2X, no date shown, checked November 4, 2026). The A2X help article tells NetSuite users to contact A2X about the integration, so confirm whether NetSuite changes the plan price.
Oracle sells NetSuite Connector as an add-on module within your NetSuite license and does not list a price (NetSuite, no date shown). Celigo’s pricing page names Standard, Professional and Enterprise editions without figures (Celigo, October 28, 2026). Folio3 says ongoing support and extra stores cost more but gives no amounts. Ask each vendor for the price per Amazon account and region, FBA and settlement add-ons, and setup hours.
How to reconcile Amazon payouts in NetSuite
Use an Amazon clearing account (a current asset) for every settlement. Post the settlement’s components to it, then record the bank deposit against it. If the clearing account does not return to zero for a settlement, something is missing. Celigo’s community thread shows the same pattern, with the bank payment and the settlement entry both posted against a clearing account that nets to about zero (Celigo Connective, March 13, 2026). Then complete the match in your NetSuite bank reconciliation.
Illustration (constructed numbers): a US seller’s settlement shows $20,000 product sales, $600 shipping credits, $400 promotional rebates, $1,200 refunds, $3,000 referral fees, $2,800 FBA fulfillment fees, $250 storage fees, $900 advertising, a $500 reserve released from the prior settlement and a new $700 reserve. The net deposit is $11,850. A summarized journal entry looks like this:
| Account | Debit | Credit | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Amazon clearing | $11,850 | Net amount Amazon will pay | |
| Refunds (contra revenue) | $1,200 | Keeps gross sales intact | |
| Promotional discounts | $400 | Contra revenue | |
| Amazon referral fees | $3,000 | Selling expense | |
| FBA fulfillment fees | $2,800 | Fulfillment expense | |
| FBA storage fees | $250 | Account-level fee, no order ID | |
| Advertising | $900 | Sponsored ads deducted from payout | |
| Amazon reserve receivable | $700 | $500 | New reserve held; prior reserve released |
| Amazon product sales | $20,000 | Gross revenue | |
| Shipping income | $600 | Shipping credits charged to buyers | |
| Total | $21,100 | $21,100 | Balanced |
When the $11,850 reaches the bank, debit Cash and credit Amazon clearing for $11,850, and the clearing balance for that settlement is zero. A summarized entry does not relieve inventory, so you still need COGS from FBA shipments; a connector that posts FBA cash sales handles that through the FBA location. If a settlement spans month end, split it by posting date.
Our independent take
No single connector wins on every axis. NetSuite Connector is the natural start for a Seller Central brand that wants one vendor and can accept per-order cash sales, because it covers orders, FBA receipts and settlements and has a Vendor Central connector as well. Celigo suits teams that already run other flows on Celigo or need the monitoring that comes with iPaaS, though you should test how its settlement entry looks before your controller signs off.
Many finance teams separate the two jobs: one tool moves orders and stock, and a settlement tool such as A2X posts one balanced entry per payout. Check A2X’s NetSuite limits (no SuiteTax mappings, no average-cost COGS) before you commit.
Three buyer scenarios
A brand selling mostly through FBA on Amazon.com. Your priorities are FBA receipts, inventory adjustment sync and settlements. Shortlist NetSuite Connector and Celigo, and ask each to demonstrate an under-received FBA shipment and a settlement that crosses month end.
A manufacturer on Vendor Central with other big-box retail customers. Compare NetSuite Connector’s Vendor Central connector with your current EDI provider. Adding Amazon to an existing EDI setup keeps acknowledgments, ship notices and invoices in one workflow.
A hybrid seller in the US and Europe. You need a connector per region and possibly per account, so price each one. Confirm that each marketplace’s settlements land in the correct OneWorld subsidiary and currency.
When you do not need a dedicated connector
If Amazon is a small channel with a few dozen merchant-fulfilled orders a week, you can import orders by CSV and record each settlement as a manual journal entry using the clearing method above. You also may not need an order connector if a 3PL or order management system already sends Amazon orders to NetSuite; in that case only the settlement side needs a tool. Our ecommerce ERP integration guide explains how to decide which system owns orders, stock and payouts when several channels feed one ERP.
How we researched this
We reviewed the top-ranking pages for “netsuite amazon connector” on November 4, 2026, including pages from Folio3, Anchor Group, DCKAP and Oracle’s help center. Each promotes its own product or services, none publishes prices, and most do not explain how settlements post or how to reconcile a payout. We then read Oracle’s and Amazon’s developer documentation and the product, pricing and help pages of Celigo, A2X, Folio3 and SPS Commerce. No vendor paid for inclusion.

Frequently asked questions
Does NetSuite have a native Amazon integration?
Yes. Oracle’s NetSuite Connector, sold as an add-on module, has an Amazon Seller Central connector and a separate Amazon Vendor Central connector. Oracle does not publish its price, so it appears on your NetSuite quote.
How do FBA orders show up in NetSuite?
With NetSuite Connector, FBA orders import as cash sales after Amazon ships them, posted to a fixed customer because Amazon does not share FBA buyer names and addresses through its API. Merchant-fulfilled orders import as sales orders that you fulfill in NetSuite.
Can NetSuite track inventory in Amazon FBA warehouses?
Yes, by setting up FBA as a NetSuite location, moving stock there with transfer orders and running an inventory adjustment sync. Oracle notes the sync reflects Amazon’s available quantity only, so reserved and in-transit units are not shown as available.
How do I reconcile an Amazon settlement in NetSuite?
Post every settlement component (sales, refunds, fees, reserves) to an Amazon clearing account, then record the bank deposit against that account. The clearing balance for each settlement should be zero; any remainder points to a missing fee, reserve or refund.
