Emma Jagger reported conflicting matter status between Salesforce (CRM) and Xero (billing), making it unclear which was authoritative. Bethan Lister explained timing lag between systems and asked for examples. Emma confirmed Salesforce is the source of truth and that Xero updates with delay.

Problem: Matter status differed between Salesforce and Xero, creating ambiguity about the authoritative data source.

Handling: Support explained the brain reflects both systems' data with timing lags. Customer identified that Salesforce is canonical and Xero has delayed updates due to their own process.

Watch: Data source inconsistency is understood but relies on customer process discipline. Timing lag between systems is expected behaviour, not a defect.

    Some client matters are showing data from multiple systems that doesn't align. Seeing conflicting information about matter status between the CRM and billing system. Hard to know which one is the source of truth.

    I can help with this. The brain pulls data from both your CRM and billing system each refresh, so sometimes there's a timing lag if one updates before the other. Can you give me a specific example: which matter and which fields are conflicting?

    Customer sent example. Matter status different between Salesforce and Xero. May be a source system sync issue on their side. Asked which is the canonical source.

    Salesforce is the source of truth for us. Xero updates from a delayed process, so it's often behind. We'll make sure Salesforce is correct going forward.
