Growing SMBs outgrow Xero the moment accounting stops being the whole business. Once you are running inventory, manufacturing, projects or multi-warehouse stock in ERPNext, keeping the ledger in a separate Xero tenant means double data entry, reconciliation drift, and month-end that depends on someone exporting CSVs by hand. ERPNext has no native Xero connector — its bundled Data Import tool can load a one-off spreadsheet, but it does not speak Xero's OAuth 2.0 API, does not map Xero tax rates to ERPNext Sales Taxes and Charges Template rows, and cannot keep the two systems reconciled after go-live. That gap is exactly where a purpose-built app is needed.

ECOSIRE builds the Xero Integration & Migrator as a proper Frappe app — its own module, DocTypes, and hooks.py wiring — installed on your bench alongside ERPNext. The one-time migration path uses Xero's REST endpoints (behind an OAuth 2.0 connection you authorize once) to pull your chart of accounts into ERPNext Account records, your Xero contacts into Customer and Supplier (with linked Contact and Address), and your tracked items into Item. Every migrated record carries a stored xero_id on a custom field so the link is idempotent — re-running the migration updates rather than duplicates. A staging dry-run produces a mapping report you sign off before anything is written to your live company.

Ongoing sync is handled by whitelisted server-side methods and Frappe's background scheduler. Document events registered in hooks.py (for example on_submit of a Sales Invoice, Purchase Invoice or Payment Entry) enqueue an outbound push to Xero, while a scheduler_events job polls Xero on your chosen interval for records created on the other side, so the flow can be one-way or bidirectional per your scope. Xero tax rates are mapped to ERPNext tax templates and accounts through a configurable mapping DocType, so VAT/GST codes land on the correct ledger. A dedicated Xero Sync Log DocType records every request, response and error, with automatic retry and a manual "re-sync" action, so finance can always see what moved and reprocess anything that failed. Access is governed by ERPNext's standard role-permission system and an integration role profile, and OAuth tokens are stored encrypted in Frappe's site config, never in plain DocType fields.

Because this is build-to-order, we start from your actual Xero tenant and your ERPNext company setup rather than shipping a generic download. After a short scoping call we confirm the exact DocTypes, direction of sync, tax-mapping rules and field mappings, then build and test against a copy of your data on staging. You receive the installable app source, run User Acceptance Testing on staging, and only then do we cut over to production — with a rollback plan in hand. Typical delivery is one working week from confirmed scope, and every engagement includes documentation, a training session, and a post-go-live support window. The full git repository is handed over to you at the end, so you own what we build.
