MDMS — Modern Dealer Management System

Departments

MDMS for equipment dealership finance teams

Finance teams at equipment dealerships deal with invoicing across every business unit — workshop invoices, rental billing periods, parts counter sales, and equipment sales — all needing to flow accurately to Xero without manual re-entry. The accounts payable side involves supplier invoices from multiple OEMs and suppliers that need to be matched against purchase orders and receipts. MDMS handles both sides of the ledger, built for Australian financial compliance from day one.

Outcomes

  • Faster invoice cycle

    Invoices flow from every module — completed work orders, approved quotes, rental billing periods — directly to Finance. No data re-entry. Invoice number generated from a configurable sequence. Sent to the customer with one click, synced to Xero automatically.

  • Lower DSO (Days Sales Outstanding)

    Overdue invoices are flagged automatically. Bulk 'Send reminders' emails customers with outstanding balances. Customer statements generated on demand. The AR aging view shows every customer's balance by bucket: current, 30, 60, 90+ days.

  • Reliable accounting sync with no manual reconciliation

    Xero sync is event-driven — invoices and payments push to Xero as they are created in MDMS. Xero invoice ID stored against every record. No end-of-day batch export required.

Capabilities

  • Australian Tax Invoice generation with GST breakdown

    Every invoice shows subtotal (ex-GST), GST amount (10%), and total (inc-GST) separately, with dealer ABN, address and logo. Compliant with ATO tax invoice requirements.

  • Xero sync

    Invoices, credit notes and payments push to Xero automatically. View in Xero link on every invoice. Sync status and xero_id stored per record.

  • ABA payment file export for AP

    Select approved supplier invoices, review totals, and export an ABA file formatted for direct upload to your Australian bank portal. Eliminates manual payment entry for every supplier.

  • Three-way match on supplier invoices

    When a supplier invoice is entered, MDMS compares it against the purchase order and goods receipt automatically. Exact matches are auto-approved. Variances are flagged for manual review.

How it connects

One platform, one data flow

Sales, service, parts and rental each generate invoices into a single Finance inbox. From there, AR aging, customer statements and Xero sync happen automatically. On the AP side, supplier invoices are three-way matched against the originating PO and goods receipt, then approved supplier invoices roll up into an ABA payment file for the bank.

Frequently asked questions

Does MDMS integrate with Xero for equipment dealers in Australia?
