Xero

Xero

Push closeout numbers into your books without manual entry.

Overview

Xero is the accounting system of choice for a lot of restaurant groups, and its API is straightforward — with one honest caveat. Xero's webhooks are deliberately narrow: Contacts and Invoices only, delivered as metadata that Nomly then fetches in full. Anything beyond that, such as bank transactions or payments, Nomly reads on a schedule instead. Connected to Nomly, daily sales, tips and tax post themselves as invoices, and a supplier whose totals keep creeping up is flagged before you sign off the month.

Configuration Steps

  1. In your Nomly dashboard, navigate to Plugins → Xero
  2. Click Connect and authorize Nomly with your Xero organisation
  3. Choose the organisation and tracking categories for each location
  4. Nomly subscribes to Contact and Invoice webhooks, and polls the rest
  5. Map your revenue, tax and tip accounts
  6. Pick the automations it powers (e.g., Daily Sales Posting)
  7. Run a test sync and turn it on — your automations are live

What you can build with Xero

Automations operators turn on in their first week — no builder required. Each one can report, ask for approval, or run automatically, within boundaries you set.
