The costed.app accounting integrations screen: connect QuickBooks Online or Xero

Xero

OAuth 2.0 connection with GL account mapping. Bills, credits, claims, receipts, payments, retention releases and purchase orders flow into Xero, rate-limited and retried properly so nothing goes missing.

QuickBooks Online

Full OAuth connection for Australian companies: GL mapping, GST codes handled line by line, and the same document set flowing into QBO.

Mapping with smarts

The mapping screen lists the accounts costed posts to, suggests the matching platform account, creates a missing one in the platform, or imports your existing chart — so a bookkeeper maps once and moves on.

Posting, both ways

One screen says what is where.

Every document has a posting state — approved, in the ledger, in your accounting package, settled — and a Posting screen with To post, To send and Blocked queues. Choose the rules per document type, lock a period once the BAS is lodged, and let the money come back.

Automatic or queued

Approve posts and sends in one go, or stops for a person to press Post. A blocked document says why and what to press.

Purchase orders to the books

Send POs to Xero or QuickBooks when they are placed. Prefer the bookkeeper to enter bills in the package? Platform-led mode pulls those bills back onto the job, matched to the PO, so job cost stays right without re-keying.

Payments come home

When the bookkeeper receipts a claim or pays a bill in the package, costed pulls it back nightly (or on demand) and marks the document settled.

Reconciled, on paper

Posting Reconciliation, GST / BAS summary with a ledger cross-check, supplier statement reconciliation, client receipts ageing, retention schedule, job P&L from the ledger and a trial balance — nine financial reports built on the sync.

The Posting screen in costed.app: To post, To send, Blocked and Sent today queues, each approved document with its status, the reason it is waiting and a Post button

FAQ

Common questions.

Which direction does data flow?
Both. costed.app is the system of record for job cost: claims, invoices, credits, retention releases and purchase orders you raise flow into the accounting package under the GL accounts you map. Payments the bookkeeper applies there flow back and settle the documents, and in platform-led mode bills entered against a sent purchase order come back onto the job.
What about MYOB?
Not offered. costed.app integrates with Xero and QuickBooks Online; everything else can be bridged through Excel exports or the API.
Do I need my accountant to set it up?
The connection is a guided OAuth flow. Most builders map their GL accounts once with their bookkeeper and never touch it again.
What if I use something else?
Everything is exportable to Excel, and enterprise imports/exports can be arranged — talk to us.
