Objective

To review a submitted project (that was created in Procore and doesn't exist in Xero™) and either accept it so that it creates a new and linked job in the Xero™ database or reject it. 

Background

If a user sends a Procore project to the ERP Integrations tool for acceptance by an accounting approver, the approver has the option to 'Accept' or 'Reject' the project for export to Xero™ as follows:

  • Accept. An 'Accept' response exports the project from Procore and creates a new project in your Xero™ system. 
    OR
  • Reject. A 'Reject' response removes the project from the ERP Integrations tool's 'Ready to Export' list and places it into an editable state in the project's Admin tool for updating (see Add or Edit a Project).

If there is at least one (1) item awaiting accounting acceptance in the ERP Integrations tool's 'Ready to Export' view, users who have been granted the privilege detailed above will receive one automated email notification per day (e.g., with the Subject Line "ERP Integrations Daily Summary) until all of the projects in the 'Ready to Export' view have been accepted or rejected.

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions:
    • 'Standard' or 'Admin' on the company's ERP Integrations tool.
      AND
    • The person's account must be granted the 'Can Push to Accounting' privilege in the Company Directory. See Grant Accounting Approver Privileges.
  • Prerequisites:
    • A user must create the Procore project in the Portfolio tool and then send it to the ERP Integrations tool for acceptance by an accounting approver. See Add a New Procore Project to Xero™.

Steps

Review Projects in the 'Ready to Export' List 

  1. Navigate to the company's ERP Integrations tool.
    Note:
  2. Click the Jobs tab.
  3. Click Ready to Export under Filters.
  4. Continue with one of the following:

Accept the Project

  1. Review the entry in the Project Name field.
  2. Choose Accept.
  3. Click Export to sync the project with Xero™.
    Notes:
    • The job should be successfully exported and synced to Xero™ in a few minutes. 
    • To view a successfully synced project, click the 'Synced' link under Filters. 
    • If a project fails to sync, click the 'Failed to Export' link under Filters. When a failure occurs, click Reject. Then add any comments about the list of errors that displays or retry the sync. 
  4. (Optional) Log into Xero™ to verify that the job appears as expected in your integrated system. 

Reject the Project

  1. Review the entry in the Project Name field.
  2. Choose Reject.
  3. Provide a brief comment that explains why the job was not approved.
  4. Click Reject. An email notification will be sent to the person who created the project as well as to the person who submitted it for accounting approval. The email is designed to inform them that the job was rejected and the reason why it was not approved. Rejected jobs will also be removed from the ERP Integrations tool and the project name and address will once again become editable fields. Once the issues have been resolved click the previously rejected job can be resubmitted for approval.
