Why Connect Acuity Scheduling to Xero?

Manually copying data between Acuity Scheduling and Xero wastes hours every week that could be spent on revenue-generating work

Patient appointment data in Acuity Scheduling and billing records in Xero require double entry, risking compliance issues

Client engagement details in Acuity Scheduling and time-tracking data in Xero do not align, making billing inaccurate

Reporting across Acuity Scheduling and Xero requires painful manual exports and spreadsheet merges

Clients in Acuity Scheduling and contacts in Xero drift out of sync, leading to outdated details on invoices, emails, and reports

How We Help

Based in Gippsland, Victoria, Clever Ops understands the tools Australian Healthcare & Allied Health and Professional Services businesses depend on. We connect Acuity Scheduling to Xero with purpose-built integrations that handle appointments and clients sync reliably at scale. On the technical side, Acuity Scheduling uses a REST API with API key authentication, and Xero authenticates via OAuth, which our team handles as part of the build.

Unified Clients Across Both Platforms

Clients in Acuity Scheduling and contacts in Xero stay perfectly aligned. Every update, whether it is a new phone number, email change, or company association, is reflected in both systems within seconds.

Unlock Xero Value

Xero stands out because australian-first design means GST, BAS, and Single Touch Payroll are built in rather than bolted on as afterthoughts. Integrating it with Acuity Scheduling means your team gets this benefit with complete, accurate data flowing in automatically.

Custom-Built for Your Workflow

Unlike generic connectors, we build integrations tailored to how your business actually uses Acuity Scheduling and Xero. Custom field mappings, business rules, and error handling included.

Built-In Error Handling and Alerts

Our integrations include automatic retries, error queuing, and real-time notifications. If something fails between Acuity Scheduling and Xero, your team knows immediately and the system self-recovers where possible.
