Xero invoice and contact sync

Xero Integration for Field Service Contractors

Field Ascend connects field service invoicing with Xero so approved invoices can move from completed work orders into accounting. The integration handles tenant connection, token refresh, organization name storage, contact upsert, account and tax mapping, invoice status selection, and amount due, paid, and credited sync.

It is useful for contractors that want Field Ascend to run scheduling, dispatch, mobile work orders, invoice review, and field history while Xero manages the accounting ledger.

How does the Xero integration work?

Field Ascend creates the field service invoice first, then uses Xero's accounting API for contact and invoice operations.

Tenant connection

The helper requires a Xero tenant ID and access token, refreshes tokens before expiry, and stores the organization name from Xero.

Contact upsert

Xero contacts can be reused by stored contact ID, account number, or name, and archived contacts can be restored to active when needed.

Invoice posting

Field Ascend posts accounts receivable invoices with dates, due dates, reference, currency, line amount type, line items, and DRAFT or AUTHORISED status.

What line item detail goes to Xero?

Xero receives structured invoice lines instead of one vague total when detailed lines exist.

Labor lines

Invoice labor rows can post with descriptions, hours, rates, account codes, and tax type mapping.

Material and misc lines

Materials and misc charges use quantities, unit amounts, descriptions, account codes, and configured tax types.

Fallback service line

If detailed lines are not present, Field Ascend can post a service charge from the invoice net price.

How does Xero status sync help the office?

Accounting status comes back into the field service invoice record so operations and finance can share the same view.

Amount due

Field Ascend can read Xero amount due for the linked invoice.

Amount paid

Paid amount and payment status can be reflected back against the Field Ascend invoice.

Amount credited

Credited totals can be read from Xero so credit activity is visible to the office.

Related field service workflows

Finance works best when the office, dispatch, technicians, and billing team are using the same operational record.
