From doors open to doors closed, peak trading means more orders, more shifts, more stock, and more receipts. Connect apps to Xero and keep your data moving, so your busiest weeks don’t turn into your messiest month-end.

Xero customers who connect apps report an average 26% boost in productivity.*

Your peak day, start to finish

• Doors open: schedule your team. Rostering and time-tracking apps like Deputy help you plan shifts, track hours, and push data directly to payroll without re-entering a thing.
• Selling: meet customers anywhere. Ecommerce apps like Shopify, Etsy and A2X sync your online stores and marketplaces straight into Xero.
• Stock: know what’s moving. Inventory apps like Cin7 Core help track stock across all channels, manage purchasing, and spot low stock before it runs out.
• Billing: get paid faster. Invoicing apps like Stripe let you issue invoices on the go, accept instant payments, and keep customer accounts up to date.
• Spending: control costs in the rush. Expense apps like Dext add advanced receipt capture, approvals and spend controls that connect back to Xero, so nothing gets misplaced.
• Doors close: bring it together in Xero. With your apps connected, sales, stock, hours, invoices, and expenses are all in one place, ready to reconcile.

If you have a large inventory or more complex processes, there are apps that provide more advanced stock management, more payment methods and a clearer view across all your channels.
