Why does the link to a Xero Batch Payment in Xero state that it's been deleted when it was approved in ApprovalMax?

There are two possible reasons for why Xero Batch Payments created and approved in ApprovalMax are shown as Deleted in Xero:

1. The Xero Batch Payment was removed in Xero after its approval
   
2. The Xero Batch Payment was changed in Xero after its approval
   

Unfortunately, when you change a Xero Batch Payment in Xero, Xero marks that Xero Batch Payment as Deleted and recreates it as a new one with the changes applied. 

ApprovalMax has no way of getting a link to that new document, so cannot update the original one in ApprovalMax. From the system's view, a changed document is a new document and such documents are not synced to ApprovalMax.

You can find modified Xero Batch Payments in the list of Account Transactions in Xero:

Such Xero Batch Payments will be cancelled* in ApprovalMax, which is recorded in the audit trail:
