Data Model

The Xero Adapter models five Xero APIs as relational databases: the Accounting, Australian Payroll, Files, Fixed Assets and Projects APIs. Set the Schema property and use the information in each section to select the proper API based on your project needs.

Using the Accounting API

The Accounting API contains the company's financial information, such as contacts, invoices and reporting. It also contains history tables which records changes to most kinds of entities.

See Accounting Data Model for the available entities in the Accounting API.

Using the Australian Payroll API

The Australian Payroll API contains information on the company's employees, such as timesheets, leave and tax declarations.

See Australian Payroll Data Model for the available entities in the Australian Payroll API.

Using the Files API

The Files API contains information on the files and attachments managed by Xero. It can be used to upload and download files, and attach them to accounting entities.

Using the Fixed Assets API

The Fixed Assets API contains information on the company's fixed assets, such as registration, depreciation and resale.
