Quick Guide: Adding a Xero Reference
Quick step-by-step guide to adding a Xero tracking code reference to a release in Mica for invoice export integration.
Updated

If your organisation uses Xero for accounting, you can link each release in Mica to a Xero tracking category. This ensures that when invoices are exported from Mica, revenue is automatically categorised by film in Xero — no manual entry required.
This is a quick-start guide. For full details on all supported providers and how references work, see Adding External References.
Steps
- Navigate to Productions and click the production containing the release you want
- In the Releases section, click the edit icon next to the release
- In the Edit Release dialog, scroll down to the References section (below Shipping)
- Click + Add
- Select Xero from the Provider dropdown
- Enter the Xero tracking category name in the ID field
- Click Add
- Click Save on the Edit Release dialog to confirm
The ID must match the tracking category name in Xero exactly — including spelling and capitalisation. If it doesn't match, exported invoices won't be categorised correctly.
Once saved, all future invoices exported for this release will include the Xero reference automatically.
