Overview
To ensure accurate reporting and invoice syncing between B-Cart and your accounting software, all tax rates — including custom tax rules — must be correctly linked to their counterparts in your accounting platform. This allows invoices, credit notes, and order data to sync with the proper tax mappings and prevents errors during export.
Xero Integration
If you’re using Xero, B-Cart allows you to directly map your tax rates.
Go to Settings → Integrations → Xero.
Scroll to the Tax Rate Mapping section.
You’ll see a list of all your system tax rates (e.g., GST, GST Free, etc.) and any custom tax rules you’ve created.
For each tax rate in B-Cart, select the matching tax rate from Xero using the dropdown menus.
Click Save to confirm your mappings.
Important:
Every active tax rule must be linked. If a tax rule isn’t mapped to Xero, invoices using that tax rate will not sync successfully.
We recommend reviewing these mappings whenever you add, rename, or delete a tax rule in B-Cart.
QuickBooks and MYOB Integration
Currently, mapping tax rates for QuickBooks and MYOB requires support from the B-Cart team.
If you use either of these platforms, please submit a support ticket and our team will help you:
Set up the correct tax linkages between B-Cart and your accounting software.
Ensure that your invoices and tax reports remain consistent across systems.
You can submit a ticket directly from your B-Cart account or via our Support page.
Best Practices
Always confirm your tax rate names and codes match those in your accounting system.
Avoid deleting tax rules that are actively mapped; instead, disable or replace them first.
If you update rates in your accounting software, make sure to review and remap them in B-Cart.
By keeping your tax rates properly mapped, you’ll ensure that your invoices, reports, and accounting integrations stay accurate and compliant.
