Build a Monthly Revenue Report That Writes Itself

Each completed sale on Panels Store triggers an automated workflow that logs the revenue in Xero as a new invoice line item, matched to the correct income category. You skip manual data entry and always have accurate revenue records without touching your accounting software.

Use Wise (an international money transfer tool) to pay overseas parts suppliers — like those selling JDM (Japanese domestic market) or European OEM (original equipment manufacturer) parts — at the real exchange rate instead of your bank's inflated rate. Set up a Make automation that creates a Wise payment task every time a QuickBooks Online bill is approved for a foreign vendor. You stop losing 3-5% on every international parts payment.

Connect QuickBooks Online to Coda (a flexible doc and database tool) to automatically pull in your weekly income, outstanding invoices, and upcoming expenses into one simple page your whole team can see. You get a plain-English view of whether you have enough cash to cover payroll, parts orders, and rent — without digging through QuickBooks reports.
