How to Send Easy Digital Downloads Orders to Lexoffice

Lexoffice is an accounting platform for managing finances. Easy Digital Downloads powers digital product sales on WordPress. Lexoffice is where your customer and order data needs to go. Here is how to connect them without Zapier or code.

Why not just use Zapier?

For connecting Easy Digital Downloads to accounting, a cloud automation service adds cost and a dependency on an external server. AFI runs on your site with no task limits.

What you will need

• A WordPress site with Easy Digital Downloads installed and configured.
• A Lexoffice account.
• The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Connect Lexoffice to AFI

Lexoffice uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. In AFI → Settings → Lexoffice, click Authorize and grant access. This is a one-time step.

Setting up the integration

1. Create a new integration

Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Easy Digital Downloads to Lexoffice.

2. Pick your trigger

Select Easy Digital Downloads as the form provider. AFI fires when a purchase is completed, giving you access to customer details, product information, payment data, and download links.

3. Select Lexoffice as the destination

Choose Lexoffice from the platform dropdown and pick Add Contact. This creates a contact in Lexoffice.

4. Map fields

Match each Lexoffice field on the left to the corresponding Easy Digital Downloads field on the right. Common mappings include customer name, email, product details, and order total. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.

5. Add conditions if needed

Only want to send certain purchases? Set up a conditional rule. For example, only sync completed payments or specific products.

6. Save and test

Click Save Integration. Place a test purchase in your Easy Digital Downloads store. Check Lexoffice to confirm the data arrived. If anything looks wrong, open AFI → Log to see the exact request and response.

Free vs Pro

The free version maps name and email to Lexoffice with unlimited orders. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-order fees on any plan.
