Wagepoint Payroll + Xero
Wagepoint + Xero
The Wagepoint + Xero integration is designed to save time, reduce errors, and simplify the way you manage payroll and accounting. With seamless data syncing between the two platforms, you’ll have everything you need to pay your people and manage your books, easily.
Here’s what you can expect from the integration: Automatic Data Syncing: Wagepoint automatically exports payroll transactions, including wages, taxes, deductions, and benefits, directly into Xero. This creates journal entries that eliminate manual data entry and reduce the risk of errors. Subscription invoices for Wagepoint are also sent to Xero, so your billing records are always up to date.
Automatic Chart of Accounts Mapping: Save time during setup with automatic chart of accounts mapping. You can still make tweaks manually afterwards! This feature streamlines the integration process and gets you up and running quickly.
Department-Level Expense Mapping & Tracking Categories: Wagepoint offers flexible mapping options, allowing you to assign payroll expenses and liabilities to specific accounts. You can even map transactions to categories like Wages & Earning Expenses, Wages & Earnings Liabilities, and Employee Benefit Expenses for more detailed tracking. Custom mapping for all remaining expense and liability categories is coming in early 2025.
Real-Time Cash Flow Visibility: By connecting Wagepoint to Xero, you gain a real-time view of your cash flow. This ensures you’re always prepared for payroll runs and helps streamline bank reconciliations.
Scalability: Whether you’re managing payroll for a handful of employees or a growing team, the integration scales with your needs. Features like department-level mapping and automated workflows make it easy to stay organized as your business grows. In Wagepoint, you’ll save time as you grow with features like employee self-onboarding, bulk updates and grid view to enter payroll data.
Built-In Compliance: The integration is built specifically for Canadian small businesses, helping you meet federal and provincial payroll regulations with ease.
Caring Customer Support: Both Xero and Wagepoint are customer-obsessed, and offer support from friendly CS teams that truly care about helping businesses succeed.
Note: Manual journal exports aren’t supported, making this integration unsuitable for users on the Xero Partner Edition.
