inFlow Inventory + Xero
inFlow helps businesses to manage inventory and orders in over 90 countries. Here’s what inFlow can help you with:
- Run a lean, efficient business: manage inventory and orders in inFlow, push all the financials directly to Xero.
- Save time and money by barcoding products: use your smartphone as a scanner to receive, fulfill, or transfer stock.
- Keep your books in step: record a payment in inFlow or in Xero and let it sync to the other side, so both systems agree on what's been paid.
- Report the way your accountant wants: map inFlow fields like location, sales rep, or product category onto your Xero tracking categories so every invoice and bill line is tagged automatically.
- Showcase your products with inFlow’s Online Showroom, a custom B2B portal that you can tailor to your customers.
How it works with Xero: inFlow pushes your orders and inventory value to Xero to eliminate the hassle of double entry:
- Push sales orders as invoices - when an order is marked invoiced or paid in inFlow, it appears in Xero as an invoice.
- Push purchase orders as bills - when a PO is fully or partially received, it appears in Xero as a bill, and your inventory value is pushed along with it.
- Keep Cost of Goods Sold and Inventory Asset accounts up to date in Xero through automatic journal entries as you fulfill and receive stock.
- Sync payments two ways - pay an order in inFlow and it's marked paid in Xero, or record the payment in Xero and pull it back into inFlow. Choose push-and-pull, push-only, or pull-only for sales and purchase orders independently.
- Map payment methods to Xero accounts - send each inFlow payment method (cash, check, credit card, and more) to the Xero account you choose, with a default account for anything unmapped.
- Apply Xero tracking categories automatically - map up to two inFlow fields to your Xero tracking categories, and inFlow tags each invoice, bill, and credit note line for you.
