Xero: Account type is invalid for making a payment to/from
Problem:
When posting a Sales Reconciliation to Xero, the following message displays:
Account type is invalid for making a payment to/from
The IdealposXeroAPI.log has the following line or lines:
20201230 09:51:01.7697 PostAllPayments Validation ERROR : Payment:1713001->Account type is invalid for making a payment to/from
Search for the Payment number (in this case 1713001) to get the Account code being posted to:
20201230 09:51:00.1290 PostTransaction Start : @PAYMENT@11 Dec 2020 10:09:44|1202001|1713001~2010|50^
This indicates that the Account code = 2010
Fix:
In Xero, enable payments for the Account:
1. Select Accounting > Chart of Accounts
2. Select the relevant Account code
3. Tick Enable payments to this account and press Save.
