Once Xero Sync has been installed onto your Shopify store and your Xero account has been connected, Xero Sync settings are displayed. From here, you can connect the accounts in your Xero organization with your Shopify store.
You can view a complete list of your accounts on the Chart of Accounts page in your Xero dashboard.
| Product sales account | An income account that records completed orders. |
|---|---|
| PayPal deposits | An asset account that records payments received for all sales in Shopify. The name of this account as it appears in Shopify reflects your settings in Xero at the time of your last export. |
| Gift cards | A liability account that records purchased gift cards. When gift cards are redeemed, the corresponding liability is subtracted from this account. This account does not track gift cards that were issued manually. Learn more about how to issue gift cards. |
| Payment deposits | An account that records payments for shipping charged on an order. |
