I could not get this to work at all, neither could my bookkeeper and it ended up making a mess of our accounts that delayed our end of period accounts. Then when i actually deleted the app, Xero still charged me 2 months of service and refused to refund it despite being able to tell that it doesnt work AND I was no longer to connected to it. Terrible customer service.

Not great. Should not be a difficult APP to facilitate, seems like the APP requires some further testing and improvements.
Problems - can't select control accounts as payment methods, sales tax account difficulties

Hi there,

Thank you for your response. We are sorry to hear that the functionality did not meet your needs. We’ve recently added more granular tax and account mapping functionality for customers in the UK, NZ and AU. This will give you more control of the way transactions are mapped to your accounts in Xero.

I wish I had the hours of my life back that I spent trying to get this app to work. Neither Xero nor Shopify support could get it to work properly. In the end I've had to delete it and cut my losses.

We installed the app and tested it. We then noticed that the app only syncs a "summary of daily sales orders", and doesn't sync individual sales transactions. Given this a neutral.ish rating because this information is stated in the app description.. and because we requested a refund as we were still in the trial period which was processed promptly. Similar to previous reviews, as a long-term Xero customer we anticipated a different app experience... goes to show - read the description and let go off your expectations!! ;)

An absolute trash. Not even a single Shopify Payout matches. How can XERO make such a trash? I doubt if the dev has tested the function. You waste my time to install, set up, and delete the mess this app has created.
I installed this app this first few days after this app launched in November. No question because I TRUST XERO!! I tried to get used to this integration by studying different sources as I am not a bookkeeper. I thought that was my lack of knowledge cause the mess. However, the mess grows when time passes and I finally realized there is some development problem with the app itself. Extreme disappointment. Shame on you XERO.

Hi there,

We’re sorry to hear about your experience.

The integration uses a clearing and bank account to manage differences in timing between when an invoice is created and your payouts occuring. This ensures that you are always able to reconcile your Shopify sales against the payments in your bank feed.

Hi,

We are sorry to hear that you didn’t enjoy your initial experience. The integration brings across a daily summary of your sales, shipping, refunds and transaction fees to enable reconciliation against the payouts you receive.

I love using Xero and Shopify - they really are a great combo. But don't use this app if your shop uses Shopify Payments - as the app simply won't work in that case. Shopify payments pays out daily based on the UTC time, whereas this app creates invoices in Xero based on your local time. They two will never be able to be reconciled, which is the main purpose of the app. Also pretty shoddy support where they failed to acknowledge this as an issue when its obvious as day and night.
Will review again when/if Xero fix this but until then.....

I have received NO response from support, and I still have unresolved issues. So I cannot recommend this app for the cost!
