Xero announced a new integration partnership with Caseware, a global provider of cloud-enabled audit, financial reporting and data analytics solutions for accounting firms, corporations and government organizations. Announced at Xerocon Nashville - Xero's partner event held on August 14-15 - the partnership will offer Xero and Caseware's shared customers a solution where they can import trial balances and general ledger data from Xero into Caseware Working Papers. This expands the existing integration between Xero and Caseware's cloud apps, which offers additional capabilities between Xero and Casware's cloud suite of assurance and financial reporting solutions.

The integration will help reduce the need to manually export and import files between the two systems, saving time and minimizing manual data entry needs for customers. The new integration, which will be available to accountants and bookkeepers in Canada (and additional regions) later this year, will help accountants and bookkeepers to complete their year-end compliance requirements faster. As part of the agreement, Xero and Caseware will explore further integration opportunities for their bookkeeping efficiency tools.
