Why are Purchase Orders not showing in Xero after approval?

Purchase Orders will only be synced to Xero once they have been fully authorised (all approvals in all steps have been obtained). As long as a request is still pending the approval of one of the Approvers, it keeps the "On approval" status in ApprovalMax.

Depending on the settings in each approval step, either all Approvers assigned to the Purchase Order must approve, or it will be sufficient if any one of them approves.
