Direct answer

Mappd flattens a NetSuite General Ledger report export into a board-pack-ready Excel sheet by reformatting Date to ISO 8601 (YYYY-MM-DD), renaming Document Number to Reference and Memo to Description, and stripping the currency symbol from Amount. The Amount column stays signed — debits positive, credits negative. Processing is client-side. Typical run time: 2 minutes.

The problem

NetSuite's General Ledger report is exhaustive but its CSV export uses single-signed Amount values (debit positive, credit negative), parenthesised negatives, and the same DD/MM/YYYY dates Excel sometimes mis-types as text. Every month you spend an hour cleaning it before the management report can use it.

What Mappd does

Mappd flattens the GL Report into a board-pack-ready Excel layout — ISO dates, plain signed numbers (no parentheses), trimmed memos, and the same Account / Type / Document Number columns the original carries. Drop it straight into your reporting template.
