Xero

Xero integration · JobWay Premium

Run the job in JobWay. Keep the books in Xero.

Connect JobWay to Xero so customers, invoices and payments can move from your operational workflow into your accounting system, while payment updates from Xero come back automatically.

No card required · Xero integration available on Premium

A cleaner accounting handoff

Enter the work once, then keep both systems aligned.

JobWay stays focused on running the job. Xero stays focused on accounting. The integration links the records that matter between them.

JobWay → Xero

Customers

When you send an invoice, JobWay can reuse an existing matching Xero contact or create one and keep the records linked.

JobWay → Xero

Invoices

Send draft or authorised invoices to Xero using the sales account and tax mappings you choose in JobWay.

JobWay ↔ Xero

Payments

Send payments recorded in JobWay to Xero, while payments entered in Xero can automatically update JobWay through secure webhooks.

Xero → JobWay

Automatic updates

JobWay listens for relevant Xero invoice updates and reconciles linked payment information without requiring a manual refresh in normal use.

Set up with control

You choose how JobWay maps into Xero.

JobWay reads your available Xero accounts and tax rates so you can choose the mappings that suit the organisation you connect.

Secure Xero authorisation

JobWay uses Xero's OAuth authorisation flow. You connect from Xero and can disconnect the integration from JobWay when needed.

01

Connect your Xero organisation

Authorise JobWay through Xero's secure OAuth connection flow and choose the organisation you want to use.

02

Choose accounting mappings

Select the Xero sales account, GST and non-GST tax rates, and the payment account JobWay should use.

03

Send your first invoice

Create the invoice in JobWay and send it to Xero. Xero keeps its own invoice numbering while JobWay's invoice number is stored as a reference.

04

Keep payments aligned

Send JobWay-recorded payments to Xero when they are ready, while Xero-side payment changes are brought back into JobWay automatically.

Questions about Xero

Know exactly what the integration does.

The integration is there to reduce duplicate admin, not turn JobWay into accounting software.

Does JobWay replace Xero?

No. JobWay is for managing clients, quotes, jobs, invoices and day-to-day work. Xero remains your accounting and bookkeeping system. The integration is designed to reduce duplicate data entry between the two.

What does JobWay send to Xero?

For linked workflows, JobWay can send customer/contact information, invoices and payments to Xero. You choose the Xero sales account, tax rates and payment account used by the integration.

Do payments entered in Xero update JobWay?

Yes. For linked invoices, JobWay uses Xero webhooks to bring relevant payment updates back into JobWay automatically. A manual check remains available as a recovery option if needed.

Will JobWay change my Xero invoice numbering?

No. Xero keeps its own invoice numbering. JobWay stores the JobWay invoice number in Xero's Reference field so the records are easy to match.

Can I disconnect Xero?

Yes. You can disconnect the integration from JobWay. Disconnecting removes the Xero connection and link metadata without deleting your underlying JobWay clients, invoices or payments.
