Xero integration

Xero wrapped through the accounting integration so financial events from the operating layer land in the building's books.

Back to architecture

Xero is the accounting system most commonly used by Apareé clients in EMEA, APAC, and emerging markets. The integration is the EMEA-and-APAC counterpart to QuickBooks: it consumes the financial events emitted by the payment wrapper and lands them in Xero with consistent metadata for unit, resident, category, period, and behavioral context.

The integration is one-directional from the operating layer into Xero. Charges, refunds, deposits, and adjustments flow in as bills, invoices, and journal entries against the right accounts on the right cadence. Tracking categories are used for portfolio-level reporting where the operator runs multiple buildings on the same Xero tenant. Multi-currency handling follows Xero's settlement model so cross-border operators can report in a single base currency without manual conversion.

The integration's role is the same as QuickBooks's role: remove the manual reconciliation step between operations and accounting, so the books reflect the resident experience the standard scored without discretionary mapping in between.
