What Xero has that a job needs.
Xero holds your sales invoices, their payment status and your contact list. For chasing money the only view that matters is aged receivables: who is late, by how much, and by how many days.
How it works
Connect it, or hand over the numbers.
- Connect Xero when you hire.You pick the account it is allowed, and it can reach nothing else. The apps an employee may use are part of its setup, so you can change your mind later.
- Or work from an export instead.Xero's aged receivables detail report exports to CSV and to Excel. That single report is the entire input a chasing job needs.
- Hire the employee for the job.For this kind of work that is Overdue Invoice Follow-up. One employee, one job, and it lands paused until you turn it on.
- It works from that, not from a guess.Your numbers, your wording, your rules. If what it is reading looks stale, it says so rather than acting on old information.
What it will not do
- Reach any account in Xero you didn't tick when you hired it
- Post, void or reconcile anything in your ledger
- Work from information it cannot tell is current
Who this is for
Worth it for whom, honestly.
UK trades whose bookkeeper put them on Xero, who now have an accurate list of late payers and no evening left to work through it. Late payment runs to £26bn across roughly 1.5 million UK businesses, at about 86 hours a year each chasing it (Office of the Small Business Commissioner, 2025).
People searching for Xero for small business and Xero invoice chasing land here too. It is one honest answer about Xero, so it is one page rather than three near-identical ones.
Questions
Xero, straight answers.
What does an employee actually need from Xero?
The records the job runs on — your prices, or the list of what is open and when it last moved. It works from what you point it at, and asks you when a line is missing rather than inventing one.
Do I have to move my business into LoopSuite?
No. There is no migration. Your records stay where they are, and what moves is the repetitive job on top of them.
Will it change anything in my ledger?
No. Nothing on the roster posts, voids or reconciles. Your books stay exactly as your bookkeeper left them — the chasing on top of them is the part that gets an owner.
Can it chase from a Xero export instead?
Yes. Overdue Invoice Follow-up works from the records you point it at, and an aged receivables export sitting in a Google Sheet is a record.
My books are accurate and I still do not chase. Why?
Because the ledger tells you who is late and stops there. The chase is a separate piece of work with an awkward tone to get right, and it is the one that gets postponed. That is the job Overdue Invoice Follow-up owns.
Does connecting Xero turn anything on?
No. Connecting an app does not start a job. A new employee lands paused and does nothing until you turn it on.
Start with the job that costs you most.
One employee. One job. It lands paused until you turn it on.
