Text Enhance
NetSuite Text Enhance is a powerful generative AI tool designed to craft contextual and personalized content across various segments such as HR, finance, supply chain, and sales.
This innovative tool, utilizing OCI's (Oracle Cloud Infrastructure) generative AI service, works by generating content tailored for any text area. It operates by analyzing a few initial keywords that express intent, producing contextually relevant text. You can essentially automate the generation of context-sensitive content across every area of the suite, addressing the following functions:
- Finance and Accounting: By accelerating or outright eliminating time-consuming writing tasks, NetSuite Text Enhance can help finance and accounting teams expedite collections, close the books faster, and focus on more strategic, high-value work.
- Supply Chain and Operations: Text Enhance can generate content for a wide range of purposes, from generating procurement orders and request letters to develop personalized vendor engagement letters and emails to chase delayed purchase orders. In addition to elevating the quality of product-related communications, this tool facilitates supply chain and operations teams in optimizing purchasing and logistics comprehensively.
- Sales and Marketing: With Text Enhance’s support, sales and marketing departments are empowered to produce more impactful campaigns driving revenue while outsourcing time-consuming writing tasks to the tool. These tasks include developing personalized email content for marketing campaigns and sales pitches, generating contextual responses to leads and prospects, and drafting written quotes and proposals.
- Human Resources: HR leaders and managers can increase the speed and accuracy of important HR activities, such as crafting job descriptions and requisitions, documenting comprehensive details and metrics for success, creating content for peer-to-peer commendations, summarizing employee performance, and more.
- Customer Support: NetSuite Text Enhance is capable of improving the efficiency of customer support agents and enhancing the overall customer journey. This involves generating responses to online customer comments, like reviews and forum discussions on social media platforms. It also encompasses creating escalation notifications for internal teams and providing updates on customer support cases for both internal teams and customers.

Additionally, the enhanced data pipeline settings offer increased flexibility by allowing you to determine the frequency and timing of data updates. You can also explore financial activities from various perspectives, incorporating data from multiple business systems.
