Issue

When exporting invoices to Xero, the following error displays in Practice Activity:

  • There was an error exporting invoices to Xero.

Clicking on the entry also displays additional information in the drawer:

  • An unexpected error occurred when submitting invoices to Xero. Click Resubmit to retry. 

Cause

This error is displayed when the Xero API returns a general response indicating that it can't process the invoice export request.

This can be associated with issues such as:

  • an interruption to Xero services
  • expired Xero API credentials
  • an issue with the data in the request

Solution

Try the following troubleshooting steps:

  1. Check Xero's service status for any known issues.
  2. If there are no reported issues, open the Invoices list and filter the list to invoices with a Sync Exception status.
  3. Resubmit the affected invoices individually, in smaller batches, or all at once.

When the resubmission is successful, the Practice Activity entry updates to a status of Success.
