This article explains how to export the Invoice item or Payment report results into a .csv file format that can be imported into the Xero accounting software.

To access reports in Bp Omni, select Reports from the top menu bar.

Before you Begin

  • To import data into Xero, you will need a Xero account. Bp Omni will create a short code for each provider to be entered into Xero. See the Xero support resources for more details on managing accounts.

The exported .csv file is conformant with Xero requirements and will populate data in all required columns for a Xero import. If the column is not present in the Bp Omni reporting screen, such as patient email or postal address, the export will still populate all necessary data. Credits, write-off's and cancelled transactions are not included in the export.
