Budget

Overview​

Direction: Xero → Zudello
Sync Type: Full sync with fiscal year intelligence
Purpose: Advanced budget synchronization with fiscal year support and account-level budget breakdowns

Budget data flows from Xero to Zudello with sophisticated fiscal year handling and account-level budget breakdowns.

Fiscal Year Configuration​

The integration supports configurable fiscal years, including standard calendar years (January-December) and other fiscal periods like April-March. This is set up in the integration's metadata.

Processing Logic​

Budget Selection​

The integration focuses on the OVERALL budget type from Xero. It retrieves the detailed lines for this budget and calculates the total budget amount for each account.

Date Calculation​

The system automatically determines the start and end dates of the current fiscal year based on the configured fiscal year type.
