Syncing Relay’s bank feed to Xero:

The initial sync occurs as soon as the integration is set up. The Relay bank feed then syncs to Xero every 3 hours, starting at midnight UTC. Relay includes all historical transactions in its initial sync to Xero. Relay does not post duplicate transactions to Xero. We track all transactions posted to ensure no duplicates are created.

You also have the option to manually trigger a sync at any point, if you would like the most recent data in Xero.

Beside the Xero logo and Last sync, click Sync Now in blue.

Things to know

  • Only Settled transactions will appear in Xero.
  • Xero does not sync bank account name changes completed in Relay. The changing of a bank account name has to be done in both Relay and Xero.
