Certainly, I’d be happy to share more about what the tool does. It extracts data directly from PDFs and imports it into Xero with minimal manual intervention. Previously, I worked with CSV files and Excel templates (and the first version extracted from those), but even the those required significant post-processing and were challenging to train others to use efficiently.
The current version eliminates unnecessary payment lines, such as owner distributions, automatically adds accounting codes and tracking codes, and ensures the invoice numbering is handled seamlessly without manual effort. These features save time and reduce the likelihood of errors, making the tool particularly useful for property owners managing larger numbers of units.
Out of curiosity, how are you currently managing this process? I’ve noticed that many smaller property owners don’t have access to PM software accounts that allow them to pull Excel-like reports and all have to copy out of the PDF, which can make data extraction more challenging. Does your setup involve similar hurdles? A few units, copy paste is fine, but this got to be a problem at scale.
