Frequently Asked Questions
The key difference lies in the direction of data flow:
Two-way sync: Data flows in both directions — from Xero Practice Manager (XPM) to Synkli and from Synkli back to XPM. This ensures both systems are always fully aligned.
One-way sync: Data flows in a single direction — from Synkli to XPM only. Updates made in Synkli will appear in XPM, but changes made in XPM will not flow back into Synkli.
