Why should I connect EasyBiz to Xero?
Connecting your accounts offers three major benefits:
- Save Time: Eliminate hours of manual data entry. Your orders sync automatically as they happen.
- Reduce Errors: Humans make mistakes when typing numbers. Automation ensures that the data in Xero matches your sales records exactly.
- Real-Time Financials: Since data syncs instantly, your financial reports are always up to date, giving you a clear view of your business health.
🔄 How the Sync Works (The Data Flow)
Understanding how data moves between your systems is critical for keeping your accounts clean.
1. The Direction: One-Way ➡️
This integration is a one-way street. Data flows from EasyBiz Cloud -> Xero.
- What this means: You should treat EasyBiz Cloud as your "Source of Truth" for sales. When you create or update an invoice in EasyBiz, it is pushed to Xero.
- Note: Changes made directly inside Xero (e.g., editing an invoice description) will not sync back to EasyBiz.
2. The Triggers: Auto vs. Manual ⚙️
When does the sync actually happen? That depends entirely on how you configure your settings. You can use one or both methods depending on your needs:
- Auto Sync (Real-Time):The moment a sale is completed, the system triggers an immediate sync. This is the "set it and forget it" option for day-to-day operations.
- Manual Sync (On-Demand):Nothing happens until you say so. You select a specific date range and click a button to "force push" those historical orders into Xero.

EasyBiz support can assist with connection errors and syncing issues. However, for specific accounting advice (like "Which tax rate should I use?" or "How do I file my GST?"), please consult your accountant or Xero support.
