How does it work?

A customer places an order in your Shopify store. When the order is marked as paid the order details are synced and imported to Xero. A new invoice is created in Xero containing all Shopify order line items including products and shipping costs. An invoice payment for the value of the order will be created against the Xero invoice. A customer is created in Xero using the Shopify customer details (Name, delivery address, billing address).

Instant Invoice App details

Shipping

The shipping cost for each order is added as a line item in your Xero invoice.

Discounts

If a discount code is applied to the Shopify order a line item is created in the Xero invoice for the monetary value of the discount being applied to the order.

Repeat customer

A customer's email address is used to identify repeat customers and log new orders against that customer. The customers address details are also kept up to date in Xero based on the most recent order in Shopify.

Customer details

Billing and shipping addresses for each Shopify order will be imported to Xero.

Invoices

Invoices are created and marked as 'Approved' and 'Paid' in your Xero account. The invoice number is set by Xero and will not match the Shopify order number. The Shopify order number is added to the reference field in Xero so each Shopify order and Xero invoice can be matched.

Payments

Payments are automatically created and applied to each invoice.

Refunds in Shopify

Any refunds made against an order in Shopify are not synced to Xero.
