Users go to Xero as contacts, invoices as sales invoices with their lines and tax, and succeeded transactions as Xero payments in the bank account that you map. A deleted user is archived in Xero.

Can payments that I enter in Xero come back to Paymenter?

Yes. Add the webhook URL from the Settings page to your Xero app and turn on the option. A payment that you enter in Xero is then recorded on the Paymenter invoice.

Will the Xero totals match my Paymenter totals?

Yes. The extension uses the amounts that Paymenter calculates. If a rounding difference remains, it adds a rounding line to the account that you choose.

Do I need the Paymenter cron?

Yes. Changes are sent right after the admin or the customer saves them, but retries and the token renewal need the Paymenter scheduler and the queue worker.

Who can change the settings?

Only staff with the "Manage Xero Sync" permission can open the Xero pages and actions.

Paymenter 1.5 or later with its cron and queue worker, HTTPS, a Xero organisation and a free Xero Web app from developer.xero.com.

Contacts, invoices and payments

New and changed users become Xero contacts, with no duplicates. Each invoice goes to Xero with its lines and tax, and the Xero total matches the Paymenter total. Payments, refunds and deleted transactions stay in step.

Payments made in Xero come back

Turn on the Xero webhook, and a payment that you enter in Xero is recorded on the Paymenter invoice. The extension never sends that payment back to Xero, so you get no loops and no double payments.

A queue that never loses a change

Every change goes through a background queue that obeys the Xero rate limits and tries again after a temporary error. Changes are sent right after they are saved, and the Paymenter scheduler runs the retries and renews the connection.

Map it to your chart of accounts

Map each tax rate to a Xero tax rate, each gateway to a bank account, each product to a sales account and an item, and each category to a sales account and a tracking category. The Xero lists load directly into the mapping page.
