Connect your Xero organisation and approved commission runs post themselves as bills, against the right contact, the right account code, and the right tracking category. No exports, no manual entry, no month-end scramble.
Calculating partner commission in a spreadsheet and re-keying it into Xero is slow, and it is where the errors come from. Partners chase, finance reconciles, and everyone loses a week a quarter.
Export the commission report, create each bill in Xero one at a time, set the account code, set the tracking category, set the date. Two days a month, every month, forever.
Commission from three different partner programs all lands under one tracking category because setting it correctly is an extra click. Programme-level reporting quietly becomes useless.
The bill was paid last Thursday. The partner has not been told, and your partner manager cannot see Xero, so the answer is another internal email and another day of delay.
Connect once. Every approved commission becomes a bill in Xero with the right partner, the right account, and the right period, and payment status comes straight back to the partner portal.
Authorize through Xero and choose which organisation commission posts to. Airstride reads your chart of accounts and tracking categories, then asks only for what it needs: create bills, read accounts, read payment status.
When a commission run is approved in Airstride, each partner's total is posted to Xero as a bill against the right contact, coded to the right account, dated to the right period. Mark it paid in Xero and the partner sees it in the portal.
70%Airstride never writes to Xero on its own. A commission run is calculated, reviewed, and approved by whoever you nominate, and only then does it post. Every posting carries an audit trail back to the deals that earned it.
Map each commission type to the Xero account it belongs in once, and every future run codes itself. Partner tiers, referral fees, and SPIF payouts can each hit their own expense account without anyone thinking about it.

Partners stop emailing to ask where their money is, because they can already see it.
