Gusto + Xero
Payroll transactions sync with Xero each time you run payroll, keeping your books up to date and making your bank reconciliations a piece of cake.
Control how much detail you’d like to see in Xero - choose to sync entries broken down by Employee, Departments, Job Titles, or Gusto Projects.
Gusto also supports Xero tracking categories so you get better visibility into payroll expenses without the need to manually tag transactions.

1. Log into Gusto and click on the App Directory tab. 2. Search for Xero, or select Xero from the Accounting category. 3. Click Connect and authorize the connection. 4. Customize the integration to your liking under the settings tab. 5. Map your Xero Chart of Accounts to your Gusto payroll categories.
