Case Study: Pure Wafer cuts NetSuite financial reporting time by 1.5 days with insightsoftware’s Spreadsheet Server

Spreadsheet Server Helps CFO and Finance Team Reduce Time Spent on NetSuite Reporting

Pure Wafer, a silicon wafer manufacturer, faced a highly manual and time‑consuming financial close and reporting process from its NetSuite ERP—CFO Scott Murcray described an 8–10 day close that required downloading data, rebuilding spreadsheets, and manually formatting PowerPoint packages. Murcray had prior experience with insightsoftware’s Spreadsheet Server and identified the vendor’s tool as a way to bring flexibility and automation to their NetSuite reporting.

insightsoftware implemented Spreadsheet Server, an Excel‑based connector to NetSuite that automates data refreshes and formatting; within the first month Pure Wafer reduced financial reporting time by about a day and a half, enabled one‑click refreshes for management packs, and automated bank covenant reports that once took half a day (now created in under an hour). The Spreadsheet Server rollout freed the finance team to spend less time assembling reports and more time analyzing results for senior management.
