Closing down a business in the UK. Concerned about loosing access to needed records
I'm about to close the xero account for my business that has ceased trading.
As far as I can tell, there's no bulk data export from Xero. I've asked Claude and searched the web, but the only advice I can find is either to write a script to pull all the data through the API myself, or keep the subscription open for seven years.
I can vibe code a script if I have to, but I'm struggling to believe that this is really the situation. Is there really no way to download your transaction logs with all the receipts, bills and invoices? Do people just unsubscribe and then pray that HMRC don't have any questions?
What am I missing?
