Xero data contract
Use the ledger as truth. Add the decision layer it lacks.
DueHello monitors receivables from the connected organisation and evaluates each next action against the configured policy. Connect the organisation, choose the accounts and invoice states in scope, then validate sender and approval rules.
Evidence remains attached to the decision.
For this workflow, DueHello keeps threshold matched, approver identity, decision and final action. The team can see what happened without reconstructing it from inboxes.

Questions before you put it into production.
How is approval by exception used by a business supplier?+
DueHello monitors purchase orders, deliveries and repeat account billing, applies the configured receivables policy and records why each action was sent, paused or routed to accounts receivable and sales owner.
What data does DueHello use from Xero?+
The workflow uses contact and invoice number, currency, total and amount due, issue date and due date, status and organisation. DueHello monitors receivables from the connected organisation and evaluates each next action against the configured policy.
What stops the approval by exception workflow?+
The workflow stops or changes route when an authorised person approves, edits or rejects the action. DueHello then distinguish process mismatch from refusal to pay before increasing pressure.
Does DueHello replace the finance or account team?+
No. DueHello performs the permitted follow-up and brings exceptions to the accountable person with the context and evidence needed to decide.
