Every invoice tells you exactly where it stands with Xero, and every sync is recorded so you can always see what happened and when.

The Xero bar on each invoice

Invoices that sync with Xero show a Xero bar at the top of the invoice:

The Xero bar shows the invoice's current status and actions

Select Refresh to check the invoice against Xero. Select Send to Xero before its first send. Once it has a Xero copy, select Sync with Xero to send changes or retry after a fix.

Sync History on the invoice

Select Sync History to see everything that has ever happened between this invoice and Xero - the invoice itself, its payments and its credit notes, in time order:

Sync History lists every action for the invoice, its payments and credit notes

Each row shows the direction (To Xero or From Xero), the action, whether it succeeded, and a plain description. The record is permanent - it keeps the full story even for payments or credit notes that were later deleted, and it stays readable while Xero is disconnected.

The settings page

Settings → Integrations gives you the organisation-wide picture.

Anything that needs you

When Xero refuses an invoice or something needs a decision, a banner counts the invoices that need your attention. Select See what needs fixing for the list - each invoice is named with a specific explanation of what happened and what to change:

Each invoice that needs attention comes with its own explanation and fix

Fix the cause, then select Sync now in the See what needs fixing window to start another organisation-wide sync. To retry one invoice only, open it and use its Xero button.

Run history

The history section shows each time AdviserAide checked or updated Xero - when it happened, what started it, and whether it succeeded. Open an entry to see the individual actions. Open a run to see the individual actions it performed:

Every sync run is recorded with its outcome

The notification bell

The bell’s Xero tab mirrors the needs-attention list, so you can spot a sync problem from anywhere in AdviserAide and jump straight to the invoice:

Xero sync issues are also one click away from the notification bell
