Setting up the Cron Job

By default, you can enable the sync to take place automatically when the WHMCS daily cron job runs. We also provide a custom cron.php file which allows the sync to take place outside of the WHMCS daily cron. To configure this, add a cron job similar to the below:

php -q /home/username/public_html/whmcs/modules/addons/xero/cron.php

By default, the cron will run all sync options you have enabled in the module. Alternatively, you can force a specific sync by appending one of these options:

  • sync-xero-payments
  • sync-contacts
  • sync-invoices
  • sync-payments
  • sync-all (to force all sync methods to run regardless of whether they are enabled in the module or not)
For example, to sync only Xero Payments to WHMCS:

php -q /home/username/public_html/whmcs/modules/addons/xero/cron.php sync-xero-payments
