How to connect Moco and Xero
Create a New Scenario to Connect Moco and Xero
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Moco, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Moco or Xero will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Moco or Xero, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Moco, Xero, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Moco and Xero integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Moco and Xero (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Moco and Xero
Moco + Xero + Slack: When a new event is registered in Moco, check if it's related to timesheet approval. If so, create a draft sales invoice in Xero and send a notification in Slack to the finance team, informing them that a new timesheet is approved and ready for invoice processing.
Xero + Moco + Google Sheets: When a new sales invoice is created or updated in Xero, retrieve the invoice data and append it to a Google Sheet. Simultaneously, find associated project hours from Moco and log them in the same Google Sheet row, providing a comprehensive budget tracking view.
