About

Xero is a cloud-based accounting platform popular with small businesses and their accountants worldwide. Its open API and bank reconciliation engine make it an ideal partner for Zentry's automated expense sync.

When transactions are approved in Zentry, they are posted to Xero as spend money transactions or bills, complete with contact (vendor), account code, and tax rate. Bank feed reconciliation in Xero then matches these entries to actual bank movements automatically.

Your accountant gains a clean, up-to-date view of business expenses without waiting for manual exports, accelerating advisory conversations and audit preparation.

Requirements

A Xero organization on any paid plan. You must be the Xero organization admin or have standard-level access. The integration uses Xero's official OAuth 2.0 connection.

Review your Xero chart of accounts and ensure account codes for business expenses are defined. The Zentry–Xero mapping uses these codes to post transactions to the correct accounts.

Getting Started

Go to Zentry Settings → Integrations → Xero and click Connect. Sign in to Xero and select the organization to link. Grant the requested permissions.

Map Zentry categories to Xero account codes and select your default tax rate. Enable automatic sync and confirm with a test transaction posted to Xero.
