Paypal & Xero linked - Opencart next?

Currently I have my Paypal account linked into Xero.

Now we don't do a massive number of sales but it is a labour entering sales totals into Xero (I do this by raising invoices periodically) and then reconciling each individual Paypal transaction against those totals (requires much splitting).

So i'm thinking of either linking Opencart into Xero too and seeing if that helps my cause somehow, there are extensions that make this possible.
Has anyone done this? If so please report your findings.

Or backtracking and removing the Paypal link from Xero.

Is anyone else finding that the things that were supposed to make life easier.... Aren't!?

Would it not be easier just to add paypal sales as a total daily/weekly/monthly?
This is what i'm doing currently, raising one invoice at the end of the month,

But then for every single individual payment coming in from the Paypal feed it's
Match - select invoice - split invoice - confirm amount - reconcile. Repeat.

In Xero you can match one large payment to several smaller invoices quite easily but I cannot see a way of quickly matching several small payments to one large invoice.
