Xero is a cloud based accounting software with over two million subscribers worldwide. It's simple to use and is accessible anywhere you have an internet connection. Some other great features that are built in to Xero include Xero payroll, bank feeds, customisable reporting and native apps for Android and iOS.

Tidy has a long standing integration with Xero through the connection with their API.
Through the API, Tidy feeds transactions relating to the Supplier Invoice so that Xero may generate an accounts payable invoice to pay the supplier.
Within TidyStock and TidyEnterprise, where inventory is added to update stock levels or made available for use on a project, an accounting transaction is sent to Xero to create an Accounts Payable Invoice.
For Time and materials projects, when time and materials are written to a project and are marked as approved within Tidy, the project becomes available for billing and a relevant invoice is added to the Invoice Queue.
A Fixed Price project invoice can be added to the invoice queue by setting the status to Complete or marking a Milestone as achieved.
From the invoice queue, one click will allow you to create an invoice in Xero ready for your normal billing process.
This integration can be easily set up following the simple steps below.
Step 1. Sign in to your Tidy account
Step 2. Go to 'Global Settings' at the top of your browser window
Step 3. Locate the ‘Xero’ section in the 'organization' tab of 'Global Settings' and click it
Step 4. You will now see a green button ‘Connect to Xero”
Step 5. Clicking the button will open a new browser window where you’ll be asked to authenticate with Xero (just follow the prompts)
Step 6. You have now connected Tidy with Xero!
