Xero Integration for Mechanics NZ: Complete Setup Guide 2025

If you are a mechanic or workshop owner in New Zealand, chances are you are using Xero for your accounting. Integrating your workshop management software with Xero can transform your business operations by eliminating double data entry, reducing errors, and keeping your books perfectly current.

When you connect Hoist to Xero, invoices created from completed work orders sync automatically. Customer records are created or matched, and payment status stays in sync. You can record payments in either system and reconciliation happens automatically.

Setting up the integration takes about 15 minutes. Connect your Xero account, map your accounts and tax rates, choose your sync preferences, and test with a sample invoice. The time savings alone typically pay for workshop management software many times over.
