How do Xero and Takealot Supplier work together?

You pick the system of truth (usually the ERP or store for stock). Wherehouse keeps Xero and Takealot Supplier in step: stock, orders and pricing flow with your rules, so you are not recapturing data between them. A dedicated account manager sets this up with example orders first.

Will you dump historic marketplace orders into Xero?

Not by surprise. We run specified example orders first. Nothing automatic goes through until those are right. Connecting Wherehouse will not rewrite a year of Xero overnight.

What if Cin7 already syncs to Xero?

Then we do not double-invoice. We write the sale into Cin7 with the right codes, and Cin7’s native Xero connector does the posting. Direct Xero invoicing is for sellers who do not have that ERP link.

Can customer tax invoices include name and VAT?

Yes. Customer tax invoices can go out with name, address and VAT filled in, instead of a blank marketplace placeholder.

Is this the same as selling on the Takealot Supplier marketplace?

No. This is the supplier / B2B side: purchase orders the retailer raises on you. Marketplace selling is a separate connection. Many brands run both, from the same Wherehouse account.

Is there a setup fee?

No. There are no setup fees on any plan. During onboarding we ingest your catalogue and sync a couple of test orders and products, so you know it works before you rely on it. You only pay once the account is live. Billed monthly. Cancel any time.

How long does onboarding take?

Usually 1 to 10 business days, depending on how many platforms you connect and how specific your rules are. A dedicated account manager sets it up with you. We run specified example orders first. Nothing automatic goes through until those are right.

Do I have to live in the Wherehouse dashboard?

No. Most sellers keep working in the store, ERP or seller portal they already know. Wherehouse runs in the background. The dashboard is there when you want one view of stock, orders, fees and sync history.

Purchase orders from Takealot Supplier - synced to Xero

Wherehouse ingests purchase orders raised by Takealot Supplier and lines them up with your fulfilment and invoicing flow, so you avoid retyping and spreadsheet handovers. Where this channel allows it, we can push stock levels or availability to Takealot Supplier so buyers see numbers aligned with Xero.

Why it matters for suppliers

Faster PO to invoice - shorter turnaround helps you stay a preferred supplier and can mean more replenishment from the retailer.

Less admin, fewer errors - PO lines and references land in Xero, so finance and fulfilment stay in one system instead of copy-pasting between tools.

Fewer stock comebacks - Where supported, availability published to Takealot Supplier lines up with Xero, which cuts short-ships and after-the-fact changes.

Commit stock to key retailers - Prioritise allocation and push the resulting availability to Takealot Supplier where supported, without a spreadsheet per partner.

Custom business logic - mappings, pack sizes, lead times and approvals tuned to how you operate.

One place for every channel - Xero, marketplaces, retail B2B and your own stores can all report into Wherehouse so sales, stock and fulfilment stay coherent instead of siloed per partner.

For Takealot Supplier, this integration can include inbound purchase orders from the retailer and pushing stock or availability to the retailer where their model supports it.
