Looking for Make.com Automation Expert to Streamline Xero Invoicing

We’re looking for an experienced Make.com automation specialist to help us streamline our Xero invoicing process.

Our business already receives bookings that automatically generate draft invoices in Xero through our existing integration. We now want to automate the next step, ensuring those invoices are automatically approved to “awaiting payment”, Outstanding Invoice sent to customers.

Hello BigBlueVanuatu,

I’m an experienced Make.com automation specialist with a strong focus on streamlining Xero workflows. I understand your current setup where bookings generate draft invoices and can help automate the critical next steps: auto-approving invoices, moving them to “awaiting payment,” and triggering Outstanding Invoice emails to customers seamlessly.

My approach:
– Review and optimize your existing Make.com scenario to ensure reliability and error handling
– Automate invoice approval in Xero via API or native modules
– Set up conditional workflows to send timely Outstanding Invoice reminders
– Test thoroughly to ensure smooth end-to-end automation with minimal manual intervention

Relevant experience:

  1. Automated billing and payment reminders for a SaaS company using Make.com and Xero, reducing manual invoicing by 80%.

  2. Built end-to-end sales-to-invoice automation for an e-commerce client, improving cash flow and customer communication.

I’d love to help you fully automate your invoicing process and reduce operational overhead.

I can help streamline your Xero invoicing process using Make.com. I’ve built multiple accounting automations that approve draft invoices and send them automatically to clients. I’ll design a Make.com scenario that triggers when a draft invoice is created, updates it to “Awaiting Payment,” and sends it to the customer keeping your invoicing process fully automated.

Hi @BigBlueVanuatu,

It sounds like your current setup already handles draft invoice creation well — now you just need a reliable Make.com workflow to automatically approve those invoices to “Awaiting Payment” and send them out to customers with proper timing and accuracy.

I’ve built similar Xero automations that:

  • Approve draft invoices in real time,

  • Trigger email dispatches with PDF attachments or payment links,

  • And log activity in Sheets or CRMs for visibility.

We can jump on a quick call to review your current scenario and design the cleanest next-step automation. You can book a call here, or continue securely on my official Fiverr workspaceif preferred.

Hey @BigBlueVanuatu!

Thanks for sharing your request!

This is a relatively straight-forward Xero automation - you can transition those draft invoices and trigger the email notifications.

Here’s a solution:

Workflow Setup: Xero Watch Invoices (Draft) → Xero Update Invoice → Xero Email Invoice

Key Implementation:

1. Xero - Watch Invoices Module

  • Status: “DRAFT”
  • Poll interval: Every 15 minutes (or as needed)

2. Xero - Update Invoice Status

  • Invoice ID: {{1.InvoiceID}}
  • Status: “SUBMITTED” (this moves to Awaiting Payment)
  • Send to contact: TRUE

3. Xero - Send Invoice Email (optional if not auto-sending)

  • Invoice ID: {{1.InvoiceID}}
  • Include PDF: TRUE

Important Considerations:

  • Add filters to prevent re-processing (check LastModifiedDate)
  • Implement error handling for locked invoices
  • Consider approval rules (amount thresholds, customer types)
  • Set up logging for audit trail

Pro Tip: Use a Data Store to track processed invoices and prevent duplicates if the webhook fails.
This is typically a 2-3 hour setup including testing with your live Xero data and ensuring email templates are configured correctly.
