1. What do we mean by 'two-way sync' between Xero and Tradify?

Staying organised and maximising efficiency is one of the keys to business profitability, which is why two-way sync comes in handy. Any change you make in Tradify or Xero will reconcile in the app you’re not making changes in. For example, if you're using Tradify's Online Invoicing feature, any future changes, payments or credit notes made to that invoice (in either Tradify or Xero) will automatically update across to the other. It's pure, invoicing harmony.

2. What does this mean for you?

If you have a hard time tracking important information over multiple systems, then two-way sync may be the perfect solution. Our two-way sync with Xero means you don’t have to worry about manually reconciling information from either app — updates can be seen in real-time view, and not just when it comes to invoicing. Getting a handle on your budget management, cash flow and other business admin doesn't need to cause a headache. Tradify saves you hours of admin by streamlining your payments, credit notes, bills, purchase orders and payment reminders, as well as invoicing.

View invoicing status with easy integration

Check whether online invoices are paid, unpaid or overdue with straightforward Tracking functionality. This helps keep your books in check and can show you who you’ll need to chase up.

Automatic payment reminders for unpaid invoices

Speaking of chasing late payers, you’ll never need to face the awkward conversation on your own. Get paid faster by setting automated payment reminders for unpaid invoices. You won’t even need to think about it if Tradify is doing the work for you.

Integration with real-time view saves time tracking more than one app

When your customers pay, these payments will be recorded on both systems — meaning you’ll spend less time tracking information or running through old bank transactions. The automatic nature of this also reduces human error and staff output — all the better for maintaining amazing customer service and saving you time on staff management. Your number tracking and reporting will be more accurate with less work from you or your bookkeeper.

Additionally, you can easily import reports, customers, suppliers and price lists from Xero — saving you time tracking down documents, exporting files and reimporting them into Tradify's powerful job management platform.
