02The adapter

A Connectify-owned Xero adapter, not a packaged connector

The platform handles that by keeping the Xero adapter inside our own runtime, monitored by our SRE rotation and updated as Xero Limited ships breaking changes. That means the field maps, sync cadences, and replay rules are shaped to your exact data model — including Bank rules + reconciliation worksheet exporter and Tracking category mapping for departmental reporting. For law firms, the difference shows up the first time the upstream API throws a 500 — the adapter retries, journals the failure, and never silently swallows a transaction.

Where Xero usually breaks — and how the adapter holds

The shape of the problem usually starts with time tracking, matter management, and trust accounting. The runtime takes care of it by mapping every payload through a versioned schema layer with explicit lineage — every record can be traced from the Xero originating event down to the field that wrote it, and the ledger stays clean every morning. The adapter also ships with Bank rules + reconciliation worksheet exporter so the runtime can keep up when law firm crews push volume spikes during seasonal peaks.

Why Law Firms pull Xero integration the hardest

Law Firms are constantly fighting time tracking, matter management, and trust accounting — and Xero sits exactly in the middle of that workflow. Connectify pre-maps the Xero entities the industry actually uses (not the entire vendor catalog) and wires Webhook-driven sync for instant statement updates into the lifecycle that matters: lead-to-revenue. That is the difference between a connector that lights up a checkbox and an adapter that so the warehouse team stops chasing emails.

Commercial terms — one flat monthly plan, no setup fee

Connectify charges a monthly retainer sized to your message volume — no per-API-call gotchas, no per-seat surcharges, and no setup fee to get started. The Xero adapter goes live only after it is reconciled and signed off by the team that will operate it inside the law firm workflow. A one-page exit clause hands you the code if you ever leave, so Connectify keeps the adapter working under load to keep your business.

05FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. Will this break our existing reports?

    No. The adapter writes through a versioned schema layer with full lineage. Existing reports, BI extracts and Excel pivot-tables keep working unchanged while new fields and new objects are added behind the scenes for the Xero surface.

  2. Do we own the integration code at the end?

    Yes. The Connectify Xero adapter ships with full source escrow rights — at any point you can request a snapshot of the code, configuration, and runbooks. We prefer you stay on our managed runtime, but you are never locked in.

  3. Can the Xero adapter handle our custom fields?

    On first connection the adapter discovers every custom field, custom object and custom workflow inside your Xero tenant and presents them as first-class mappings — you decide which to mirror, which to ignore, and which to enrich.

  4. What does pricing look like?

    The Xero adapter runs on a flat monthly retainer sized to message volume — no per-API-call gotchas, no per-seat surcharges, no setup fee, and a one-page exit clause.

  5. How is data security handled?

    Tokens and credentials live inside a hardware-backed secret store with audit logging on every read. The Xero adapter runs on isolated workers with deny-by-default egress, and every message is replayable from a tamper-evident journal for downstream forensics.

  6. Does it work with our existing Xero licenses?

    Yes — the adapter rides on top of your existing Xero subscription. We use service-principal or OAuth M2M credentials so the integration never burns a named-user seat and never pushes you into a higher tier.
