I am building a module which does provides a basic integration of a drupal site with netsuite crm(for a client). I am planning to implement tasks such as
1.) creating leads,prospects, customers.
2.) adding users as sales reps.
3.) assigning sales reps.
4.) notifications with emails about new leads for follow up.
5.) creating activites.
6.) create roles types based on netsuite.
I will make use cases once I get around the PHPToolkit that netsuite provides for the developers. I would be very happy if anyone would want to chip with their ideas and experiences with netsuite or in general.

I have done some basic
I have done some basic integration between netsuite and Drupal. Are you planning on maintaining the data in both Drupal and Netsuite? If so you should choose up front which system will be the master system -- attempting to synchronize changes in both directions will eventually break and you will have a data integrity problem. I would expect Netsuite would be the canonical data source since your client probably uses Netsuite for billing, A/R, etc. and would not want Netsuite to have the wrong data.
I have exported records from netsuite to Drupal by writing server side scripts in Netsuite that call drupal xmlrpc services (see the services module) whenever the record was changed in Netsuite. The nodes created in drupal are considered read-only.
You, or your client, should look at doing as much as possible inside Netsuite using Netsuite's server side and client side scripting capabilities.

My client uses netsuite
My client uses netsuite mostly for leads and sales. So he requires a way to generate leads from the website made in drupal(file downloads, submission of forms, user registration). Then the module should be able to assign leads to salesreps based on territories from which they have originated. These are the basic stuff I would like to complete before going further.

NetSuite Integration
The only way to integrate Drupal with NetSuite is using web services. NetSuite has an extensive API which you can use to achieve the functionality. You can find out more about NetSuite Integration here: NetSuite Integration or by reading the manual they post within NetSuite help file. Let me know if you need some help. I can be reached over skype at kszpirak82
Good luck.
