Reconciling PayPal transactions in NetSuite has always been a challenge. While Celigo’s PayPal Reconciliation App does a solid job at the basics—bringing in payments, fees, and refunds—it quickly shows its limitations when finance teams need real control over the reconciliation process.

At Hairball, we’ve built a custom PayPal Integration App that solves those gaps head-on.

The Problem with the Standard Approach

The out-of-the-box Celigo PayPal Reconciliation App makes reconciliation faster, but many accounting teams hit the same roadblocks:

  • No End Date Control: You can’t stop the sync at a specific date. That means new transactions keep flowing into NetSuite even when you’re trying to close the books for month-end or quarter-end.
  • Weak Multi-Currency Support: PayPal transactions often span multiple currencies, but the app forces everything into one deposit. This creates a mess when your NetSuite environment is set up with separate bank accounts for each currency.
  • Limited Deposit Flexibility: Transactions get grouped in ways that don’t always match your financial structure, which forces manual adjustments in NetSuite.

In short: the tool is good for simple use cases, but it breaks down when you need precision, control, and compliance.

Our Solution: Full Control of PayPal Reconciliation

Our Custom PayPal Integration App puts finance teams back in control:

End Date Filters

Decide exactly which transactions to bring in. Close the books with confidence by reconciling up to a defined cutoff date, no more surprises from late transactions appearing after the period is closed.

Multi-Currency Reconciliation

Automatically separate PayPal transactions by currency and route them into the right NetSuite bank accounts and deposits. USD goes to USD, EUR to EUR, GBP to GBP. No manual reclassing required.

Flexible Deposit Handling

Set rules for how transactions are grouped into deposits. Whether you want one deposit per day, per currency, or per payout, the app adapts to your business, not the other way around.

The Result: Clean, Controlled, and Compliant

With our custom integration, finance teams finally get what they’ve been asking for:

  • Cleaner reconciliations with less manual work.
  • Confidence in period close by locking to end dates.
  • Accurate reporting across multiple currencies and bank accounts.
  • Flexibility to adapt to unique business structures.

Instead of working around the limitations of the standard app, you gain a reconciliation process that fits your operations, seamlessly.

Why We Built It

At Hairball, we believe integrations shouldn’t just move data; they should enable control, accuracy, and growth. PayPal is one of the most common payment processors in eCommerce, and finance teams deserve better than half-measures.

Our custom PayPal Integration App was designed for businesses that need precision in their financials, without sacrificing automation.

If your team is tired of manual fixes and limited tools, let’s talk. Our PayPal Integration App could be the difference between messy reconciliations and financial clarity at scale.
