Consider switching to QuickBooks: QuickBooks offers comprehensive accounting features but lacks the same level of automation for multi-channel sales.
Compare the posting workflow and the limits of the plan you would actually buy. Synder offers individual transaction posting and Summary Sync, while A2X for Shopify is worth considering for a small store focused on payout accounting: its Mini plan is US$29/month before applicable taxes for one store and up to 200 orders, but excludes COGS and gift-card reporting. Synder's Basic plan starts at US$65 on monthly billing and uses a generic customer in Per Transaction Sync, so customer-level reporting requires more than selecting that mode. A2X orders and Synder synced transactions are different billing units, so compare your actual activity rather than treating their allowances as equivalent.
Use Per Transaction Sync when you need individual sales, refunds and fees posted in your accounting system, subject to your plan's detail limits. Summary Sync groups activity for a selected period, such as a day or payout, when aggregated ledger entries suit your reporting needs. Choose carefully during setup because changing modes requires a new Synder organization and a cutoff that avoids overlapping postings. The change applies to future activity and does not convert previously synced records.
Synder's documented Shopify workflow records sales, fees and refunds through a clearing account, then posts the net payout to the checking account for matching against the bank feed. This separates the sales activity from the amount actually deposited. A Shopify connection covers Shopify and Shopify Payments data; connect other payment processors separately when you need their records. Check a sample payout and its account mapping before enabling routine synchronization.
Synder supports historical imports, but the available dates depend on the source platform, and imported history consumes sync capacity. Review what is already in your books and select the missing date range before posting a backlog. Synder's historical-import page excludes Basic from duplicate detection, so that plan requires particular care with existing records. On other plans, confirm how duplicate detection applies to your chosen mode and existing entries rather than treating it as a guarantee against overlap.
Yes, Synder documents a rollback, rebuild and resync workflow for posted summaries. Roll back the affected summary, correct its mapping or settings, rebuild it and then sync it again. Changing the mapping alone affects newly built summaries and does not rewrite existing ledger postings. Check the corrected entries in your accounting system before continuing automatic synchronization.
Several Shopify stores can connect to one QuickBooks company through the same Synder organization, with each store using its own integration slot. Separate QuickBooks or Xero companies require separate Synder organizations and subscriptions. Check both the connection allowance and combined transaction volume for each organization; unlimited integration slots do not mean unlimited included syncs or company subscriptions.
You need to connect your source platforms and accounting system, choose a sync mode and start date, and review the account mapping. Synder's Summary Sync guide recommends posting one summary and checking it in the ledger before enabling automatic sync. The billing guide makes onboarding part of enabling auto-sync on Pro and Pro Max, with a documented option to request immediate Pro enablement by email. These are configuration steps, so a successful connection alone does not establish that the accounting entries are correct.
Cancelling stops future subscription charges and normally leaves your account active until the end of the paid billing period. Synder's terms make purchases non-refundable except where required by law, so cancelling an annual subscription does not automatically refund unused months. If you subscribed through the Clover App Market, cancellation must be completed through Clover rather than inside Synder. Export your transaction history before access expires, or contact support for an export afterward; records already synced to QuickBooks or Xero remain there.
