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 relationship tier, policy version, handoff reason. The team can see what happened without reconstructing it from inboxes.

Questions before you put it into production.
How is relationship-based dunning used by a consultancy?+
DueHello monitors monthly retainers, time-based fees and milestone billing, applies the configured receivables policy and records why each action was sent, paused or routed to engagement partner and finance lead.
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 relationship-based dunning workflow?+
The workflow stops or changes route when relationship context requires a pause, handoff or revised route. DueHello then surface commercial blockers to the engagement owner 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.
Map this against real invoices.
