Modified on Thu, 15 Aug at 9:02 AM

As transactions are in the state to be sent to Xero, they will be added to the Xero queue in the Xero dashboard (Accounting -> Xero). The status for a transaction to be added to the Xero queue is as follows:

Invoice
Approved
Purchase Order
Invoiced  (Supplier invoice number and date)
Payments
Applied (Payments can only be sent to Approved Invoices in Xero)
Credit Notes

Transactions ready to send to Xero will be indicated by a count. If there is nothing to be sent to Xero, it will display the transaction is up to date. Review the available information queued to send to Xero in the Send Data to Xero section of the Xero dashboard.

Note: You can enable transactions to automatically send to Xero in your Xero Settings. Payments are synced hourly, Journals are synced daily and COGs are synced monthly.
