3. How to configure the option in Autotask

Notes & Limitations
- The synchronization process does not support the removal of included persons. Therefore, if an individual is taken off the list after it has been added to Xero, that individual will remain in Xero and will not be deleted.
- The synchronization process is unable to delete any included persons that you have manually added to Xero.
- If the email address associated with a contact in Autotask changes, the synchronization process will not update the existing email. Instead, it will create a new contact entry in Xero for the updated email address.
- The email address serves as the primary identifier; therefore, any updates made to the first or last name will be synchronized and reflected in Xero.
- Please note this feature is not yet available for all of our customers, please contact our support team if you require this feature.
