Shopify and Xero: sync and payouts

Xero builds the Shopify integration. It brings Shopify sales, payouts and fees into Xero, and records sales either as a daily summary or as one transaction per sale. We help you choose between them, check what the connection posts and reconcile each payout. The listing details below are from the Xero App Store.

What we do with Shopify and Xero

  • Choose between a daily summary and one transaction per sale, based on your order volume and the detail you want to see in Xero.
  • Connect Shopify to Xero from the listing and set the accounts that sales, fees and refunds post to.
  • Match each Shopify payout to its bank deposit, checking the sales, fees and refunds the payout details show.
  • Check that sales from your online store and from Shopify POS both arrive in Xero.
  • Teach your team the weekly routine: checking the sync, matching payouts and following up anything that did not come through.
