FAQ
Xero-specific. No fluff.
Does Fairview write anything back to Xero?
No. Fairview is read-only. It reads your P&L, invoices, and bills from Xero to calculate contribution margin per channel. Nothing is ever written back to your Xero account.
Does Xero support multi-currency accounts?
Yes, with a note. Multi-currency Xero accounts require you to select a base currency at setup. Fairview will pull transactions in your base currency. Cross-currency margin comparison is available on the Growth plan.
Does Fairview replace Xero?
No. Xero remains your accounting system of record. Fairview reads from Xero to surface margin intelligence — it does not duplicate, alter, or replace any accounting function. Your accountant and your Xero data stay untouched.
How does account mapping work?
When you connect Xero, Fairview presents your chart of accounts and asks you to tag each category (revenue, COGS, operating expense, etc.). This takes about 5 minutes and only needs to be done once. Standard Xero chart-of-accounts templates are auto-recognised.
What is the difference between Xero and QuickBooks for this integration?
Functionally identical inside Fairview. Both provide P&L, cost, and revenue data. Fairview uses whichever you connect — you do not need both. If you already use Xero, connect Xero. If you use QuickBooks, connect QuickBooks.
What Xero plan do I need?
Any paid Xero plan (Starter, Standard, Premium, or Ultimate) works. Xero Cashbook plans have limited P&L access and may not surface complete cost data. Check your plan includes P&L reporting before connecting.
