The Payhawk integration with Xero is designed to work effortlessly and help you keep your data between the two systems in sync at all times.
Notes on exporting to Xero
It's recommended that you sync your Payhawk-Xero accounts every time you make changes in Xero.
An expense will be automatically exported to Xero once that expense is marked as reviewed. As a result, all your expense data, images, and bank statements will be imported to Xero. For more information, see the overview of the pushed and pulled payments, expenses, and deposits between Payhawk and Xero.
After the export to Xero, Payhawk will pull the value for the expense External ID from the Bill number of that expense. If there is also a payment export for the payment External ID, Payhawk will display the value from the Bill payment number of that payment.
