Getting started in 5 minutes

ReorderPilot works with the tracked inventory in your Xero organisation. Setup is three steps:

  1. Connect Xero. Create your account, then click Connect to Xero and choose your organisation on Xero's consent screen. Bookkeepers can connect several organisations — each is managed separately.
  2. Sync your items. The wizard pulls your tracked items, quantities, costs, and supplier contacts. The first sync reads everything; later syncs only fetch what changed.
  3. Set reorder points. Let ReorderPilot suggest them from your recent sales (you confirm every number before anything is applied), or set them yourself on the Items & rules page.

From then on, every sync checks stock against your rules. When a SKU drops to or below its reorder point it appears on the dashboard, you get one alert email, and drafting the purchase order is one click.

Only items marked tracked in Xero carry quantities. Untracked items sync but can't be monitored — see Troubleshooting for how to enable tracking in Xero.
