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.

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

  1. Navigate to Productions and click the production containing the release you want
  2. In the Releases section, click the edit icon next to the release
  3. In the Edit Release dialog, scroll down to the References section (below Shipping)
  4. Click + Add
  5. Select Xero from the Provider dropdown
  6. Enter the Xero tracking category name in the ID field
  7. Click Add
  8. Click Save on the Edit Release dialog to confirm
Add reference dialog with Xero selected as the Provider and the ID field ready for a tracking category name
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.
