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 prior contact attempts, approval or hold status, handoff package. The team can see what happened without reconstructing it from inboxes.

Questions before you put it into production.
How is invoice escalation used by a marketing agency?+
DueHello monitors retainers, media costs and project milestones, applies the configured receivables policy and records why each action was sent, paused or routed to finance lead and account 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 invoice escalation workflow?+
The workflow stops or changes route when payment, response, internal hold or formal handoff. DueHello then route disputed media spend or scope changes to the account owner before another touch.
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.
