After months of dedicated collaboration with the dev team at Xero and invaluable feedback from our fantastic customers, WorkGuru is proud to announce that we have been accepted as an official App Partner of Xero. This Xero integration means every WorkGuru client can now enjoy world-class operations visibility while maximizing the benefits of Australia's most popular online accounting platform.
WorkGuru was always designed as an operational platform, leaving accounting and statutory reporting to dedicated accounting packages. Our ambition to be the best lightweight ERP on the market is unwavering. We believe we can achieve this by leveraging Xero's expertise in accounting. After all, Xero has invested billions in building a world-leading product specifically for this purpose.
The Xero integration allows WorkGuru to seamlessly send Sales Invoices, Bills (from Purchase Orders), Cost of Goods Sold journals, and Contacts from WorkGuru to Xero. WorkGuru will never send or retrieve data from Xero without your explicit permission. For detailed information, check out our support article in our knowledge base.
We're also working on adding payment reconciliation, which would enable you to record payments in WorkGuru and have that data flow to Xero and vice versa.
From a practical standpoint, the Xero integration facilitates a bidirectional data flow, creating a single point of truth for your operational and financial requirements.
By integrating with Xero, WorkGuru ensures that you get the most out of your business management and accounting tools, empowering you to focus on what you do best—running your business.
Manually inputting, moving, or copying large chunks of data always carries the risk of mistakes (not to mention the time it takes!).
On the other hand, WorkGuru.io will integrate with Xero to easily communicate important information like timesheets and invoices. Your team will save hours of time, and you will know you have a single point of truth for your data. It’s a win-win.
Sending your data to Xero is quick and easy. There’s no manual transferring data to and from the two programs; it just requires a click of a button.
To look at your settings and send data from WorkGuru, it’s as simple as visiting WorkGuru and navigating to Accounting > Xero. Here, you can check if the information is up-to-date and send an invoice, cost of goods and timesheet information to Xero in a few clicks.
WorkGuru.io and Xero work together to help you collect and use powerful data. Because you can share information across the platforms, you can access and use the best features to get more business insights and make informed business decisions.
Both WorkGuru.io and Xero offer powerful reporting tools that make it easy and face to understand your business.
