How to connect your invoices to Xero automatically
One-time setup. After that, every invoice generated through Korda flows into Xero without manual input, created, categorised, and logged automatically as jobs progress.
What automatic actually means
The integration works across two stages. Invoice creation: when a Korda invoice is approved and sent, an identical record is created in Xero immediately, client details, invoice number, line items, GST, and payment terms carry across. Reporting: because invoices flow in as they're generated, your receivables are current, aged debtors and GST position reflect actual invoicing activity rather than a batch entry from three weeks ago.
The one-time setup
You authorise the connection and confirm how your invoicing maps to your chart of accounts. From that point, the integration runs in the background with no ongoing management required. Existing clients in Xero carry across to Korda, and new clients added through Korda are automatically imported into Xero.
What still requires human input
The integration handles invoice creation and logging. Job costing decisions, expense categorisation, and compliance work still sit with your accountant. What changes is the quality and currency of the data they're working from, less time reconstructing transactions, more time on the work that actually requires their judgment.
