Body

Use the SRM Xero integration to avoid manually entering your accounting journal postings in both applications. The integration can save you valuable time, effort, duplication errors, and discrepancies in your financial reporting.

Note: The integration is available for Software as a Service (SaaS) SRM customers only.

Data Sync

The SRM Xero integration works by replicating certain information you enter in SRM into the appropriate spots in Xero via a one-way sync. In other words, this information does not travel back from Xero to SRM. The following information is synced over the integration:

Chart of account name
Chart of account description
Chart of account ID number
Debit and credit posting amounts

Daily Use

Use the SRM Xero integration to perform your daily close routines in your financial reporting process. This process varies by company; some organizations do daily closes on daily, weekly, or even monthly schedules. In SRM, the integration adds a fourth "sync" step to your daily close process, which manually shares your SRM posting information with Xero.

Note: See: "Use the SRM Xero Integration to Complete Your Daily Close Process" for more information on the daily use of the integration.
