What the Xero integration syncs
What to know before you connect Xero
It is your books, not a shop
Xero is your bookkeeping, not a storefront. Its quantity is a figure on the books that no shopper ever sees, so we count it as an integration but not as a shop your customers buy from.
Orders go in and do not come back
Orders go in as draft invoices against the customer. Xero does not send orders back out, by design.
Stock needs tracked items
Stock sync needs tracked inventory. Switch on Track inventory in QuickSync’s Xero settings and pick an inventory asset, cost of goods sold and inventory adjustment account; every stock change we write then lands as a bill or credit note against a QuickSync Inventory Adjustment contact, which is how Xero moves a tracked quantity.

Questions Xero sellers ask
What does QuickSync get access to on Xero?
Your products and stock, and never card details. You can remove the access from Xero at any time, and we stop.
Will connecting Xero change anything a customer sees?
No. Xero is your books, not a shop, so nothing on your shops changes when you connect it.
Can Xero send orders back to my shops?
No. Invoices and quantities go in, and nothing comes back out. That is by design.
Does the tracking number go back to Xero?
No. An invoice has no shipment to attach one to.
Which plan do I need for a Xero integration?
Lite covers Xero: $19 a month for two shops and 1,000 items, with stock kept in step. Pro at $29 adds listings and orders, and 2,500 items.
