The shift Retail operators make when they switch.

Before XIntelliSync
✕Weekend penalty rates are a calculation you do manually every Monday morning for every casual.
✕Stock purchases and business expenses are one big pile you separate at tax time.
✕BAS means two days of reconciling your POS system, Xero, and your bank statement.
✕Christmas was profitable. February payroll is a problem. You knew it was coming and couldn't avoid it.
✕Your debtors list for trade accounts is an Excel spreadsheet you update by hand.
After XIntelliSync
Award rates applied on every pay run — Saturday at 125%, Sunday at 150%, public holidays at 225%.
Stock categorised as COGS and business expenses as overheads — automatically, from your bank feed.
BAS prepared from live POS and bank data. GST collected. Input credits calculated. Done.
February cash position visible in November. Seasonal cash gap forecasted 90 days ahead.
Trade account debtors followed up automatically. You see the list. The agent does the chasing.

Retail Award penalty rates are the most litigated in Australia.

The General Retail Industry Award 2020 has five different penalty rate tiers by day and time. Junior rates vary by age bracket. Casual loading applies differently to different shift types. One wrong interpretation creates a wage theft liability. XIntelliSync applies the correct rate automatically.

Seasonal cash flow in retail is predictable. Invisible until it isn't.

Every retail operator knows December is strong and February is slow. What kills businesses is not knowing exactly how slow — and then facing payroll, rent, and a BAS in the same fortnight. Daily forecasting makes the gap visible months before it becomes a crisis.

Inventory is your biggest asset. Tracking it manually is a full-time job.

XIntelliSync tracks inventory costs automatically from supplier invoices and bank feed data — categorising every purchase correctly as cost of goods and updating your gross margin in real time. No year-end stocktake shock.

Multi-location retail needs one view. Not one view per location.

Enterprise tier includes automated multi-entity consolidation — all locations, one P&L, one payroll run, one BAS. See your whole business in a single dashboard without manual consolidation every month.

One price. Everything included.

No setup fees. No per-agent charges. No per-employee add-ons.
