Technologies I Use
Frequently Asked Questions - Xero Integration
Do you create a Xero account for clients?
+No, you need to create your own Xero account at xero.com. Xero requires you to provide your business details, tax information, and banking details during setup. As a developer, I handle the technical integration after your Xero account is active. I can guide you through the Xero signup process if needed.
Do you do bookkeeping in Xero?
+No, I'm a software developer, not a bookkeeper or accountant. I build technical integrations that connect your systems to Xero and automate data flow. For bookkeeping services (categorizing transactions, reconciliation, financial statements), you'll need to hire a bookkeeper or accountant. I work alongside your accounting team to automate their workflows.
Can you integrate Xero with my custom software?
+Yes, I specialize in connecting custom .NET applications to Xero. Whether you have a CRM, ERP, e-commerce site, or proprietary business software, I can build API integrations to sync data with Xero. This includes custom databases, web applications, and desktop software.
Will the integration work in real-time?
+Yes, I can build real-time integrations using Xero webhooks that trigger immediately when events occur (invoice paid, contact created, etc.). Alternatively, scheduled syncs can run hourly, daily, or at custom intervals depending on your needs. Real-time is ideal for customer-facing features, while scheduled syncs work well for batch processing.
What happens if Xero's API changes?
+Xero maintains API backward compatibility and announces changes well in advance. I build integrations using Xero's stable API endpoints and follow their best practices. If Xero deprecates features, I can update your integration as part of an ongoing maintenance agreement. I also implement error logging to detect API issues quickly.
Can you migrate data from my old accounting system to Xero?
+Yes, I can build migration scripts to import historical data (customers, suppliers, invoices, transactions) from your previous accounting software into Xero. This includes CSV imports, database exports, or API-to-API migrations from systems like QuickBooks, Sage, or MYOB. I ensure data integrity with validation checks throughout the migration process.
Do I need a specific Xero subscription plan?
+Most integrations work with Xero's standard plans (Starter, Standard, Premium). However, some advanced features like project tracking or multiple currencies require specific Xero plan levels. I'll review your requirements and let you know which Xero plan features you'll need. The Xero API access itself is included in all paid Xero plans.
