Reckon Accounts on Oliver POS
Reckon Accounts and Reckon One receive Oliver POS counter sales through the WooCommerce + Reckon connector — Australian accounting with in-store revenue on the same ledger.
How Reckon Accounts works with Oliver POS for WooCommerce
Reckon Accounts (and the cloud-native Reckon One) is the long-standing Australian SMB accounting platform used by small businesses and many accountants. The WooCommerce + Reckon connector posts orders as Reckon invoices and customers as Reckon customers. Oliver POS writes register sales into WooCommerce, Reckon picks them up — BAS and GST returns reflect the unified online + in-store activity.
What Reckon pulls from WooCommerce
The Reckon WooCommerce integration syncs WooCommerce orders as Reckon invoices or tax invoices, customers as Reckon customers, and refunds as adjustment notes. Reckon then handles BAS reporting, GST returns, and statutory accounts.
Oliver POS sales become WooCommerce orders; the Reckon connector treats them identically to online orders.
Why in-store sales matter on the Reckon ledger
Reckon is most often used by Australian small businesses with a long-standing accountant relationship — the accountant uses Reckon, so the business does too. Reckon's value is in being the single ledger the accountant works from. A POS that doesn't feed Reckon means the accountant gets two data sources, which is exactly what they don't want.
Oliver POS on WooCommerce keeps Reckon whole. Counter sales feed Reckon automatically with the right GST splits, BAS prep is a routine job instead of an investigation, and the year-end is clean.
How the WooCommerce + Oliver + Reckon sync works
Cashier rings the sale on Oliver POS, captures the customer, tenders. Oliver writes a WooCommerce order. The Reckon connector creates or matches a Reckon customer, posts a tax invoice with line items and GST codes, and records the payment against the configured Reckon bank account.
Best fit for retailers who…
Reckon on Oliver POS suits Australian small retailers already on Reckon Accounts or Reckon One, particularly those whose accountant has a long-running Reckon practice.

Common questions about Reckon Accounts on Oliver POS
Does Reckon support real-time sync from Oliver POS sales?
The Reckon WooCommerce connector typically runs near-real-time (every few minutes) or per-order, depending on the deployment. Either way, Oliver POS sales reach Reckon the same way and on the same schedule as online WooCommerce orders.
Can Reckon One (the cloud version) work with Oliver POS?
Yes. Reckon One's WooCommerce integration follows the same pattern as Reckon Accounts. Oliver POS rings the sale into WooCommerce; Reckon One picks it up through the connector.
Does Oliver POS have a partnership with Reckon Accounts?
No. Oliver doesn't partner with Reckon Accounts or any other accounting platform. We support Reckon Accounts because its WooCommerce connector already pulls orders, refunds, taxes, and customers from your store — and Oliver writes every in-store sale into WooCommerce as a standard order, so the same connector picks it up automatically. Your accounting subscription, your ledger, and your contract stay between you and Reckon Accounts.
Does Oliver charge extra to use Reckon Accounts?
No. You pay Reckon Accounts's standard published pricing directly to Reckon Accounts. Oliver doesn't take a markup, doesn't insert itself into the data flow, and doesn't charge a per-transaction or per-journal-entry fee on top.
Do register sales from Oliver POS reach Reckon Accounts?
Yes. Every Oliver POS sale is written to WooCommerce as a standard order with the customer, line items, taxes, and payment method attached. The Reckon Accounts WooCommerce connector treats that order the same way it treats an online order: it posts the same invoice, journal entry, or sales receipt, with the same tax splits and the same customer record. There's no separate "POS sync" to configure.
Will my in-store and online sales reconcile against one set of books in Reckon Accounts?
Yes. Oliver POS writes register sales into the same WooCommerce store that powers your online checkout, so by the time orders reach the Reckon Accounts WooCommerce connector they're already a unified order stream. Reckon Accounts sees one revenue feed, one tax-liability total, and one customer ledger — no manual reconciliation between an online and an in-store set of books.
