Stick with what you know

LemonBooking is a Xero certified integration, but we also have integrations for QuickBooks and Sage. Invoices and credit notes are pushed out, payments come back in and match themselves to the right invoice automatically.

Xero

Our certified integration, and the one most venues run. Invoices, credit notes and customer records sync in real time, with tracking categories — per facility, event or renter — so your reports break down the way your committee wants them. Once a payment is reconciled in Xero, it comes back to LemonBooking and the invoice is marked paid.

QuickBooks

Invoices and credit notes land as QuickBooks transactions with your own customer records, nominal codes and sales tax rates. Classes are matched by name, so bookings for different facilities stay separated in your accounts. Payments reconciled in QuickBooks are sent back to LemonBooking, so the invoice closes at both ends.

Sage

Send bookings, invoices and credit notes into Sage Accounting, with ledger accounts and sales tax rates mapped once and then left alone. Useful where an external bookkeeper or accountant already works in Sage — reconciled payments are sent back to LemonBooking, so you both see the same picture.

What actually syncs.

Here's what moves between the two systems, and which way each piece travels:

Invoices & credit notes out: Each invoice arrives with its line items intact — facility, date, hours and rate — against the right customer record. Cancel or refund a booking and a credit note follows automatically.
Payments back in: You reconcile payments in your accounting software the way you already do. That payment information is returned to LemonBooking automatically, so every booking shows its real payment status.
Billing (nominal) codes & tax rates: Codes are applied per line item rather than per invoice, and so are sales tax rates and amounts. Room rental and catering can sit on the same invoice at different rates, coded to different accounts, and still balance.

“We have been using Lemon Booking system for a couple of years now and find it really flexible and easy to use. With 7 hireable spaces at any one time it has been a great asset for us. The fact that we can synch the invoices to Xero has been a huge bonus. Thoroughly recommended.”
