Previously, CRM Purchase Orders (POs) were synchronized exclusively to Xero Bills.
We have now introduced the flexibility to choose whether CRM Purchase Orders should synchronize to:
Xero Bills or
Xero Purchase Orders
Navigate to:
Settings → Webservice Settings
Under the option:
CRM Purchase Order Sync To Xero's
Select either:
Bills (Default)
Purchase Orders
Existing users will not be affected by this enhancement.
By default, synchronization remains configured to Bills.
To switch from Bills to Purchase Orders:
Revoke the existing Xero connection.
Select Purchase Orders as the synchronization target.
Reconnect to Xero.
After changing the synchronization target to Purchase Orders, you must review and complete the Purchase Order field mappings.
Navigate to:
Settings → Field Mapping → Purchase Orders
Alternatively, use:
Settings → Webservice Settings → Complete the Required Default Mappings
to automatically configure the required mappings.
In the Purchase Orders module, click Create Purchase Order button .
In the Create Purchase Order page, enter the relevant details.
Under the Product Details section, click Add Line Items.
