Xero integration

Time tracking that invoices into Xero

Log billable hours in Quanta and send the invoice. Invoices, contacts and payments go to your Xero organisation, with line amounts matched to the cent.

  • Hours become the invoice

    Build invoices from tracked time and expenses. Each line posts to the revenue account for its item type.

  • Tax rates match Xero

    Map each tax profile to a Xero tax rate once, and Xero calculates the tax.

  • Approve before it counts

    Turn on drafts and invoices land in Xero's Drafts, ready for someone to approve.

  • Cents reconcile

    Line amounts are rounded to the cent, and any leftover cent goes on its own Rounding line so Xero accepts the invoice.

  • Payments follow

    Payments recorded in Quanta go to Xero, into the payment account you choose.

How the sync works

    Connect Xero and choose your organisation.

    Send an invoice. It goes to Xero automatically when auto-sync is on, or click Create invoice in Xero.

  4. 4

    Record a payment in Quanta. It goes to Xero.

  5. 5

    Optional: pull payments recorded in Xero, one invoice at a time.

Questions

Does it sync automatically?
Yes, when auto-sync on send is on. You can also push each invoice by hand.
Can invoices wait for approval in Xero?
Yes. Turn on Create invoices as drafts and they land in Xero's Drafts.
Does it pull from Xero automatically?
No. Pulling payments is a click on each invoice, and invoices created in Xero are not imported.
Can I edit an invoice after it is paid?
Xero locks line amounts once a payment is applied. Quanta stops the change and tells you to remove the payment in Xero first.
Can I invoice in other currencies?
Yes, if the currency is turned on in Xero under Settings, Currencies. Otherwise Quanta tells you which currency is missing.
Can I connect Xero and QuickBooks at the same time?
No. Each workspace connects to one accounting system at a time.
