Parex Bridge

If you need the actualy Sales to be imported then Parex Bridge is a better app. This allows you to see overseas sales and set correct GST codes.

Hi Nicole, Thanks for stopping by to leave a review. We import all your overseas sales to Xero as 'Global sales' and allow you to set the correct GST codes to ensure that you can accurately account for these sales in primary sales tax return - the one you're submitting through Xero. If you have any questions about this or need further support please don't hesitate to reach out at https://central.xero.com/s/contact-support. Thanks, The Xero App Store team

Significant limitations if you have multiple stores

I’ve been using your Xero integration app and appreciate the effort that has gone into creating it. However, I’ve encountered a significant limitation: the app only works effectively for businesses with a single store. Business owners note if you have multiple stores under the same ABN this will not work I strongly encourage xero team to consider enhancing the app to support businesses with multiple stores. This would make the app much more versatile and valuable to a broader range of users.

Hi Maria, Thanks for the review. We are sorry to hear the app didn't meet your requirements regarding support for multiple Shopify stores. We appreciate you taking the time to provide the feedback and will consider this in future improvements to the app. -The Xero App Store team
