### One-way Synchronization
For Items, synchronization works **one-way.** This type of synchronization will import and update information from Xero in Precoro.
- [Products and services](https://go.xero.com/app/!P-2Vk/products-and-services) is the **source folder in Xero**.
- [Item Management](https://app.precoro.com/manage/item) is the **target folder in Precoro.**
Please remember that if one item in Precoro and Xero with a similar **Name** contains different information, when importing from Xero the data in Precoro will be updated according to the information provided in Xero.
### How to Import Items from Xero to Precoro
1\. Open the Precoro [Integrations page](https://app.precoro.com/xero/configuration).
2\. Press the **Import Items** button.
3\. Select the necessary Items you wish to Import to Precoro.
4\. Press the green **Import** button below.
We map items by two values: **Name** and **SKU**.
Thus, items will only be mapped when both the **SKU** and **Name** fields in Precoro and Xero are identical.
If in Xero the Name differs by at least one character, when importing, you will create another Item in Precoro.
### Field Mapping of the Imported Item
The information you have entered when creating an Item in Xero will be synced in Precoro during import:
| **Precoro** | **Xero** |
| --- | --- |
| Name | Name |
| SKU | Code |
| Price | Cost price |
| Xero Chart of Accounts (Items Custom Fields) | Purchases account |
| Description | Description |
