FAQ

Common questions

Can Knit build “Invoice orders when they ship” between Packlink PRO and Xero?

Yes — describe it in the box above and Knit's Integrations Agent researches Packlink PRO and Xero's public API docs (or your own uploaded docs) and builds a working workflow, whether or not either app already has a pre-built connector.

How long does it take to build?

Minutes to a first working version, not weeks — you test it against real data before it goes anywhere near production.

Can a shipment trigger an invoice in Xero?

Yes. When a shipment is created or marked shipped in Packlink PRO, Xero can create the matching invoice or sales receipt.

How do shipping costs get recorded?

When a shipping label is created in Packlink PRO, its cost can be logged as an expense or bill in Xero so carrier spend is tracked automatically.
