This workflow automates the full invoicing and payment process using n8n and Xero. It allows businesses to generate invoices, track payments, send WhatsApp notifications, and keep records synced automatically, without manual follow-ups or repetitive admin work.

It’s designed to plug into your existing tools and scale as your operations grow.

How It Works

  • A webhook receives invoice or payment data from your app, form, or system
  • Xero automatically creates or updates the invoice
  • Payments are tracked and verified in real time
  • Clients receive WhatsApp notifications for invoices, reminders, or payments
  • All records are logged in a database and synced to Google Calendar and Google Sheets
  • Automated responses confirm successful actions or errors

Everything runs in the background once connected.

Setup

  1. Connect your Xero account to n8n
  2. Set up a database (PostgreSQL via Supabase) for logging invoices and payments
  3. Connect Google Calendar for scheduling and tracking
  4. Connect Twilio WhatsApp for client notifications
  5. Point your system or payment source to the provided webhook URL
  6. No complex coding required. I guide you through the setup and ensure everything is tested.
