What is a franchise software app?

Franchise management software helps franchisors and franchisees manage businesses across multiple locations from one centralised place. Acting as a single view solution, franchise software consolidates admin, sales, marketing, accounting, inventory and reporting, allowing you to keep on top of your business and make informed decisions faster.

What are the benefits of a franchise software app?

  • Visibility into all locations: Keep an eye on operations no matter how many franchises you have or what locations you manage. Gain valuable insights into all areas of your franchise locations and compare data about customers, products, and sales across stores.

  • Branding consistency: Keep all branding consistent and within the set guidelines of your franchise. Create a resource library of assets and communicate expectations among teams with franchise software.

  • Improve sales and marketing: Track sales and create forecast reports for seasonal increases or decreases. Use a franchise CRM software solution to create marketing campaigns, track customer data, and follow up with leads and sales opportunities.

  • Multi-location supply chain management: Ensure stores have products when they need them with supply chain tracking and profitability tools. Manage the flow of supplies and products across multiple locations and use historical data to predict future inventory needs for seasonal shifts.

What are the typical features I can use with franchise software apps?

  • Multiple location reconciliation: Ensure that all your accounting information is the same and create a database for records. Bring together all locations into a single tool and sync financial data into Xero from every franchise.

  • Automated job allocation: Check schedules across multiple stores and assign duties and responsibilities to team members as needed. Use real-time employee availability data to schedule shifts and get up-to-date job costs in each franchise location.

  • Accounting tools: Monitor invoices, expenses, overhead, assets, inventory and payroll within your franchise management app. Consolidate all data syncing with Xero for balanced sheets, no matter how much you grow or how many franchises you bring on board.

How franchise management apps work with Xero

Bring multi-entity management into one centralised place when you integrate a franchise management app with your Xero account.

Consolidate your financial data when and where you need it in clear, customisable ways to make more informed business decisions for every location quicker than ever. When you connect your franchise management app with Xero you can:

  • Pull data from every entity within your business daily or on-demand and generate consolidated reports on the financial position of each entity you own.

  • Set up cross-entity bank reconciliation within Xero in one click for accurate, balanced books without the risks of paying bills twice, missing payments or wasting time on manual reconciliations.

  • Quickly highlight discrepancies within loan accounts and automate interest adjustments straight back to Xero.
