'Inventory' account in Xero is not mapped to anything in BUZ
If an account is deleted in Xero, it isnt necessarily deleted in Buz. A scenario this leads to is if a code is created in Xero "300" and deleteed after importing to Buz. Now 6 months later they try to add another account with same code, Buz will treat it like an update from 6 moths ago, and not a new account.
