  1. On the employees interface it would be helpful to have the number of hours booked showing against the holiday. Currently it only has the dates that have been booked. The hours are shown on the employer interface

    Crossing back over your idea here, Katie it looks like this is actually possible - When an employee taps on the leave request in their Xero Me app, it'll bring up all the details of their leave including the total hours. 😊

    If they're unable to see this, we'd suggest asking them to raise a case with our team of specialists through Xero central who can get a closer inspection to help.

  2. For web orders etc there is no way of adding to the invoice that the order has been paid.
    So an option within the Due Date section to choose 'Paid In Full' would eliminate the customer receiving the invoice appearing as if it needs to be settled.

  3. It would save so much time if there was an option to bulk code multiple lines on one bill, rather than selecting the account code for each line individually.

    Hi team, with little interaction on this idea in sometime and based on the existing options that have been shared we are going to move this idea to delivered.

    To reiterate the options - you can set defaults for accounts, items and contacts to fill fields and save time when entering bills, alternatively depending on your workflow you may also find importing bills from CSV where you can bulk populate account codes for multiple lines on one bill handy.

  4. To be able to filter the History and notes - by the date that the changes were made on something specific and not the date of the original transactions.

    This would be helpful if the Annual Financials have been finalized, and a change has been made after the fact.

    For example: You want to know when the changes toward the 2022 tax year were made, towards the advertising account transactions since a specific date i.e. a date after the financials have already been finalized.

    or

    All bills that were processed after a specific date and not necessarily the date of…

    Sorry we've not updated this idea here sooner, everyone. To confirm this is how the date range filter int he History & notes report works today - Results in the report are based on the date the actioned occurred in Xero, not the date entered on the transaction.

    For a broader view of recent user activity you may also find the assurance dashboard quite useful.

    We appreciate there are other items and actions that our customers would like to see more record of history for and we welcome you to join and/or add any ideas for specific actions you'd like to see entries recorded for.

  5. It would be great if we could search from within a customer or supplier record for a specific invoice or bill number.

    It is difficult at the moment to search as
    1) there are always notes in the way that can't be hidden
    2) you have to exit the customer/supplier to find the screen where a search is available.

    Having used other accounting packages, I was shocked to see this wasn't available within Xero.

    Hi team, sorry we've not returned to this idea sooner. You'll find with some of the updates we've made to the contacts record it is now possible to view transactions in separate tabs within the Activity of a Contact, and are also able to search transactions in the tab by amount, reference or invoice number 🙂

  6. I would like to complete a 'proper' bank reconciliation.
    To be able to enter a figure from a bank statement and have xero compare that to the bank figure in xero for the same date. This feature is available in the package with the very annoying tv adverts and in old school sage.

    Hey community, 👋 thanks for supporting this idea. I'm popping in to switch it across to delivered!

    Our new bank reconciliation reports allow you to manually enter the closing balance of your account for a set date at the top of the report. This then shows in the report as the bank statement ending balance.

    For more information check out our Bank Reconciliation reports support article 😊

  7. To allow for the statements in the docx set up to have a field for terms. The due date whilst it prints on the statement it is helpful to the client to see their terms

    Hi all, not having any response since my last update we're going to move this idea to delivered. If terms are generally the same you could use Advanced branding and add your payment terms to the docx template as static text so this would be included when sending statements to your customers with that branding applied.

  8. In pay employees, add pay run the column last edited isn't wide enough to show the full description. It would be helpful to be able to read the whole description of when the entry was last edited. It would also be helpful to know who entered and edited the pay entry.
    If new staff are in training and have completed the data entry but are nervous to speak up if an error was found/made knowing exactly who entered it would help to educate that staff member no what might have gone wrong.

    Looping back across your idea here, Kristy - you can view this from the History at the bottom of the screen. This'll show details of changes made to that pay run with the dates, times, the user and the change that was made, which should help identify and educating staff 🙂

  9. For a company that takes Direct Debits from customers and the receipt appears as one line on the bank statement it would be useful to be able to bulk match the receipt to multiple customers rather than having to manually select every invoice the receipt relates to. You could do this by being able to import invoice payments in the same way you can import invoices into Xero.

  10. Extend the search function under bills to pay to include creation date to help elevate duplication when exporting data to csv file.

    I want to export invoices from Xero to import into a CRM platform to use as a job cost analysis as this is not a function Xero currently has.

    All invoices dated the 01.09.22 will not be input on the same date so there is no way to ensure you have exported all the invoices for the 01.09.22 unless you delay the export. This is not a practical solution for me as I want to assess the profit…

    Hi team, returning to the idea I wanted to highlight that you can currently run the History & notes report which could be filtered for Type = Bill, and type 'created' in the search bar.


    Relating to the ability to identify duplicates - our team are currently working on aa duplicate detector that'll further help with this process, so you'll be able to review bills that have been identified as duplicates and take needed action before exporting - You can stay up to date with work for this on this idea. Just add your vote to receive updates 🙂

  11. We have some suppliers that charge tax (e.g. VAT) and others who do not (e.g. from abroad).

    On the bank rule creation/editing page, it would be useful to be able to specify the default taxation status (i.e. Tax Inclusive, Tax Exclusive, No Tax) for all transactions being processed by that rule.

    This would save having to manually select the correct tax category on every bank rule transaction during reconciliation.

    Hi team, not having any response to our last update we will move this idea to delivered.  To confirm - when using bank rules to create transactions you can specify the tax rate that should be applied to the transaction within step 3 where you allocate line items. 

    For example you can set if the bank rules created from certain suppliers would have VAT rate 20%, zero rated or No VAT.

  12. We have created contact groups (Accountants Names) and have allocated all of our contacts to their accountant. We want to print a list of the overdue debtor amounts for each accountant so we can follow them up but there is no report that does this.

  13. Preview PDF on Bill Screen. Currently viewing a PDF has to many clicks

    Have to click the files icon 1
    then click the file name i want to download
    then click in my browser to open the downloaded file

    Can we not just have it preview the PDF in the browser, if there is only one file attached a preview button without having to drop down first would also be good. So you can view the attached invoice in one click instead of three.

    Thanks for all contributing to the idea here! With our new Bills quick view feature, previewing your files has been become much simpler.

    From the list view you'll be able to see the # of files uploaded to a bill, and by clicking on the file icon you can get a quick side by side preview (without having to leave the list view).

    You'll also find you can use the arrows in the bottom right corner to switch from one file to the next where you've uploaded multiple. 😉

  14. This is a basic need. In the past, it was possible to set VAT country as NONE to add the tax number, now in the new UI is not possible, since the UI requires selecting a country. Please fix that as soon as possible, since we need to add the tax number on the invoice to non-EU countries!!!

    Hi everyone 😊

    This has now been changed so that you can edit the Financial Details for a contact, and set VAT to None, then enter a tax number for them.

    There's more detail on this here: Edit a contact

  15. The new Account Transaction report doesn't show the reference from Transfers which the old report did. There is a reference column in the new reports but it is blank for transfers - can it be updated to show this?

    Hi everyone, returning to the idea here we're going to move this to delivered. When using Transfer and you've included a reference this'll appear when running the Account Transactions report in Xero. Check out our earlier status update for an image of what this looks like. 

  16. Option to Auto Fill Account, Tax Rate, Sales person for all rows. It gets quite time consuming to manually add for each line (even if it is a button at the top of the fields allowing auto fill of all, that would greatly help)

  17. The ability to add or minus a bulk amount on a invoice(not just a discount)
    Percentage

    Would be great so can add fuel levy in or minus a amount off the total of invoice
    That you need ect.

    Hi all, as previously shared this is possible by adding a new line to your invoice. You can add both positive or negative lines to the invoice to change the total amount.

    Alternatively rather than a line in itself you could use new invoicing to discount each line by a total amount.

  18. It would be great if when you download a report into PDF that the headings for each column are on each page like the sticky headings. If you have a multiple page report and you only get the headers on the first page you have to keep scrolling back to the top to remember which column is which.

    Hi Ann, as you may have found with Xero's new reports, now when you export a report to PDF if you have multiple pages column headers will be shown at the top of each page. 

    Sorry it's taken a little to round back on this here and thanks for sharing your idea in community here. 

  19. I would like to make a suggestion (for XERO improvements). on the inventory page, where it is listed, where there are 3 dots on the right (currently only archive or delete), can EDIT not be added there, rather than first clicking on it, and then searching the edit button on the top of the next screen

    This now now available, Mieke! 🎉 From your list of Products and services you'll find the option to Edit from the 3 dots to the right of the item. Thanks for sharing with us on this, here. 😁

  20. The ability to import annual leave from Planday to Xero so you are not creating it twice on both platforms.

    Hi Chris, thanks for your idea here. Understand you may have completed the process yourself by now, but incase you have other orgs you're looking to set up and for others that may be looking for the same - We've released new Switching Wizard in Payroll for the UK. 

    This'll make it easier to transition from your current payroll provider to Xero Payroll, reducing errors and saving you time.

    As part of the experience, you'll be able to import a Full Payment Summary(FPS) from your current software provider to Xero Payroll. You can get more understanding of how this works on our website and through our short video.
