Send Unsynced Xero™ Standard Cost Codes to ERP Integrations for Accounting Acceptance
Objective
To send new (i.e., 'unsynced') cost codes that have been added to the 'Xero™ Standard Cost Codes' list in the company's Admin tool to the ERP Integrations tool, where it can then be accepted for export to Xero™ by an accounting approver.
Background
If you have added new cost codes to the 'Xero™ Standard Cost Codes' list in the company's Admin tool, those codes will need to be synced with your integrated Xero™ system. To do this, you must first send the new codes to the company's ERP Integrations tool where it can then be accepted for export to Xero™ by an accounting approver. After acceptance, the data is exported to your integrated ERP system where they will appear as 'Service Items' in the Xero™ Items list.
Important! Anytime you add one (1) or more new cost code(s) to the 'Xero™ Standard Cost Codes' list in Procore, it is recommend that you always export those new codes to your integrated Xero™ system before attempting to export data that are associated with those codes from other Procore tools (e.g., Budget, Commitments, Change Orders, and so on).

Notes:- If the button is grayed-out and unavailable, hover the mouse cursor over the button to view a tooltip describing the reason the button is not available. Typically, this is because the page needs to be refreshed.
