The team at Brixx are very pleased to announce the full release of our integration with Xero!
We would like to give a massive thank you to everyone who took part in the Beta phase and offered us feedback – without you, it wouldn’t have been possible.
What is the Brixx & Xero integration?
This new integration allows you to play with several neat features. Here’s how it works:
Step 1) Connect to Xero
Our partnership with Xero allows you to get a head start in Brixx through your existing company data.
Once connected, Brixx presents you with a structured model of your business based on your Xero data and connected to the components of your plan. You can also connect an existing Brixx plan to your Xero account to bring across actual data to set against your forecast.
Step 2) Model the future
Each component in Brixx allows you to forecast an aspect of your business. Initially these are based on your Xero chart of accounts.
Adding in more components enables you to model future activities in a modular and flexible manner, making scenario testing intuitive and easy, while retaining a link to related Xero actuals for comparison.
Easily plan new hires, asset purchases, new product launches and so much more.
Step 3) Compare actuals vs forecast
The Xero integration allows you to instantly compare your Brixx forecasts with your Xero historical data. You can carry out variance analysis at a detailed level on the Brixx actual vs forecast reports to keep your goals and budgets on target.
The long and short of it is that you can now save even more time with Brixx by populating your Brixx plans and actuals with your existing Xero data. Learn more about Xero data, including add ons.

What’s next?
Now that the hard work on the integration is complete, some of you might be wondering what’s next for the Brixx app.
In the short term:
- Adding prepayment forecasting options to income and expense components.
- New report options, including hiding Xero account names and decimal places.
- Reforecast reports featuring a period of actuals followed by a forecast period
- A revamp to the way inventory works, including maintaining a certain level of stock.
- The ability to manually adjust taxable profit
In the long term, now that we’ve laid the groundwork with our Xero integration, we’ll be working on more integrations, such as Sage and Quickbooks.
We’ve also planned some of these exciting projects:
- Actuals vs forecast on the dashboard
- Custom dashboards
- Weekly reporting
- Plan consolidation
We do hope you enjoy using the integration – please do let us know of any feedback you have!
