What data is synced between Pleo and Xero?
Tax codes from Xero are automatically populated in Pleo.
"Categories" in Pleo reflect your chart of accounts in Xero. When you set up your categories after enabling the integration, the drop-down menu in Pleo will automatically reflect your account numbers in Xero. That said, you will need to give the specific category (account number) a name. The name should be easy for employees to recognise when they assign details to their Pleo purchases (e.g., business trips).
"Tags" in Pleo reflect your tracking categories and customers in Xero. When you import your tags, choose the "import from Xero" options so that everything syncs automatically.
