WooCommerce BACS orders as unpaid Xero invoices

For trade customers and account-term orders, BACS payments should not always be marked paid in Xero. ClearCommerce lets payment handling follow the payment method.

Payment handling

Leave BACS and account-term orders unpaid

WooCommerce payment methods need different accounting treatment. ClearCommerce payment mappings can leave BACS orders as unpaid Xero invoices while card-paid orders can be marked paid or rolled into daily summaries.

  • Create one Xero invoice per BACS order
  • Set due date rules such as same day, 7, 14 or 30 days
  • Match or create Xero contacts from billing details
  • Keep paid gateway orders on their own treatment

Why BACS should not be treated like card payments

A BACS order may be an instruction to pay later, not proof that money has arrived. Individual unpaid invoices keep accounts receivable accurate.

Gateway paid

Mark paid methods as paid only when the mapping says so.

Trade-ready contacts

Use billing company, name and email to match the correct Xero contact.
