Things to take note 📝

Invoices are pushed as 'Awaiting Approval'.
If an invoice has been approved on Xero, TradeGecko cannot update the invoice. However, the invoice can be voided.
If the company details (e.g. address, contact details, etc.) have been updated on TradeGecko, it will not be updated in Xero after the initial push.

Note

However, if you have a large volume of contact/relationships to sync from TradeGecko to Xero, contact us for further assistance.
