Xero Inventory Management for Product-Based Businesses
Xero is a powerful online accounting platform used by small businesses, accountants, and bookkeepers to manage cash flow, invoicing, payments, and financial reporting. Xero handles invoicing, bank reconciliation, and financial reporting with ease.
Pair it with Cin7 and you add full inventory management, stock tracking, warehouse control, and bills of materials, all feeding cleanly into your Xero accounting. From tracking stock across multiple warehouses to managing bills of materials for manufacturing, Cin7 fills the inventory gaps so Xero can focus on what it does best.
Together, Cin7 and Xero create a connected system that helps teams stay aligned, reduce manual work, and make confident decisions as the business grows.
Why You Need Inventory Management Software with Xero
Xero is fantastic for accounting, but if you're tracking inventory across multiple locations, selling on several channels, or managing complex product variants, you'll quickly outgrow its built-in tools. We pick up where Xero leaves off, giving you real-time stock visibility, automated purchasing, and warehouse management, all connected to your accounting in Xero.
