Frequently Asked Questions about Shopify + Xero integrations

New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Shopify and Xero

To set up the Shopify to Xero integration, you first need to log into both your Shopify account and your Xero account. In our platform, you'll create a new Zap where you'll select Shopify as the trigger app and choose an event like 'New Order'. Then, you will select Xero as the action app and choose actions such as 'Create Invoice'. Follow the prompts to connect your accounts and configure your fields accordingly.

Our platform supports various triggers in Shopify that can initiate actions in Xero. Common triggers include 'New Order', 'Order Paid', or 'Product Updated'. Once a trigger is activated, it can initiate actions such as creating invoices, updating inventory levels, or generating detailed sales reports in Xero.

Yes, syncing inventory levels between Shopify and Xero is possible by setting up specific Zaps. You can use triggers from Shopify like 'Product Updated' or 'Order Fulfilled' to update inventory counts in real-time on your Xero account using appropriate actions.

Absolutely! By setting up a Zap with 'New Order' in Shopify as the trigger and 'Create Invoice' as the action in Xero, you can automate your invoice creation process. This means each new order made on your store will automatically generate an invoice in your Xero account.

If you encounter issues with data transfer from Shopify to Xero, we recommend checking the connection settings of both accounts first. Ensure that all required fields are mapped correctly within our platform. Additionally, reviewing the task history for any error messages might pinpoint the problem source.

When integrating with our platform, information such as customer details, line items (products), taxes, discounts applied on orders, and shipping fees from new orders on Shopify can be transferred into corresponding invoices or transactions within Xero.

While our platform allows a seamless transfer of data between these applications, there may be rate limits imposed by either third-party API which could affect high-volume stores. We advise checking both platforms' documentation regarding transaction limits if you're processing large volumes regularly.
