Automate Payroll with Gusto + NetSuite

Gusto makes payroll easy for small and mid-market companies — automated tax filings, benefits administration, and contractor payments. But when your finance team runs on NetSuite, someone still needs to manually post payroll journal entries every pay period.

At BrokenRubik, we connect Gusto with NetSuite to automate the payroll-to-GL workflow.

What We Build

Payroll Journal Entries: Each Gusto payroll run generates a properly coded journal entry in NetSuite. Gross wages, employer taxes (FICA, FUTA, SUTA), health insurance, 401(k), and all deductions map to the correct GL accounts.

Department and Class Allocation: Payroll costs allocate to the right NetSuite departments, classes, and locations based on employee assignments in Gusto. Multi-department employees split costs proportionally.

Employee Record Sync: New hires in Gusto create employee records in NetSuite. Status changes — terminations, department transfers, compensation updates — sync automatically.

Contractor Payment Posting: Gusto contractor payments post to NetSuite with proper 1099 vendor mapping and expense account coding. No separate workflow needed for contractors vs. employees.

Benefits and Liability Tracking: Health insurance premiums, retirement contributions, and PTO accruals from Gusto post to the appropriate liability and expense accounts in NetSuite.

FAQ

We're a small team — is this worth automating?

If you're running payroll in Gusto and financials in NetSuite, even a 10-person company saves hours per pay period by automating journal entries. The integration pays for itself within a few months.

Can you handle Gusto's multiple pay schedules?

Yes. Whether you run biweekly, semi-monthly, or monthly payroll (or a combination for different employee groups), each pay run generates its own journal entry with the correct period dates.

What about year-end adjustments?

Year-end payroll adjustments, bonus runs, and corrections in Gusto post to NetSuite as separate journal entries with clear descriptions, making reconciliation straightforward during close.
