What this is for
Connect Xero to send your sales, staff timesheets and purchase orders from the Nomni Console to Xero.
Before you start
A Xero login with adviser or standard access to your organisation.
MYOB is not connected (only one accounting system can be connected).
You're signed in to the Nomni Console at app.abacus.co with a login that can see this page. If it's missing from your menu, ask your account owner to check your role.
Connect to Xero
In the top bar click Add-Ons, then go to Accounting > Xero > Connect To Xero.
Choose the Version (V2 is recommended; the page lists Benefits of connecting to Xero V2 and Functions not supported in the Xero V2).
Click Connect to Xero, sign in to Xero and pick your Organisation.
Set default accounts
Go to Xero > Default Accounts and click Load Accounts From Xero.
Map each item to a Xero account. Use New Account to create one (Account Type, Tax Type, Name, Code). Set Consolidated Payments if you want one payment line per day. Click Save.
Export timesheets
Go to Xero > Export Timesheets. Pick the Payroll Calendar, From and To, tick the staff and click Export Timesheets.
Under Settings, tick Use actual hours instead of approved hours if you don't approve timesheets.
Export purchase orders (beta)
Go to Xero > Purchase Orders (beta), set Created From and To, and click Export Purchase Orders.
Tips
Set default accounts before exporting anything.
Common problems
"Please remove MYOB configuration before setting up Xero."
Disconnect MYOB first.
"Please configure your default accounts first!"
Finish Default Accounts, then export.
"Token has expired, please authorize again"
Go to Connect To Xero and connect again.
"Xero Payroll is not available in your country."
Timesheet export only works where Xero Payroll is offered.
