  3. In Xero Payroll, it would greatly improve efficiency if the "Save & Next" button appeared at the top of the employee pay details screen, not just at the bottom.

    For businesses with detailed pay setups (multiple earnings lines, deductions, reimbursements, etc.), scrolling to the bottom of every employee’s pay screen just to click "Save & Next" is time consuming and disruptive to workflow.

    Adding this button to the top would:

    • Streamline navigation during pay runs

    • Reduce unnecessary scrolling

    • Improve accessibility for users reviewing multiple employee pays in one session

    This small UI change would make a big difference for payroll…

  4. Adding a feature in Xero that allows finance admins to designate specific fields on expense claims as mandatory or optional would ensure consistent data entry, improve financial tracking, and streamline the approval process.

    Key Benefits:

    Enhanced Compliance: By making certain fields mandatory, such as business function or event tracking, admins can ensure that all necessary information is provided, reducing the risk of incomplete or incorrect submissions.

    Improved Data Accuracy: Mandating specific fields ensures that critical data, like cost centers or project codes, are always captured, leading to more precise financial tracking and reporting.

    Flexibility: Different organizations or departments may have…

  5. When entering a new stock item, there isn't an opening to enter opening stock.
    We need to create the item first then enter the quantities in an adjustment tab.
    It makes sense to make adjustments to items already created, but surely we should be able enter an opening stock value when creating an item, this would save us a lot of time.

  6. In the Bank Rules it would be very helpful to have a tick box that allows the full original description from the transaction in the bank, to be allocated when you reconcile the transaction.
    Much like the Set Reference as 'reference/description/etc' option but specifically to include the original transactions detail.

    E.g. Bank rule & contact would be: 'Pharmacy'
    - but the original description in is a transaction from 'Boots £3.50' or 'Superdrug £14.00' so when you apply the bank rule and you check the transaction in 'Account transactions' under the specific nominal (e.g. personal care), the description would say the…

  7. Allow users to put in mileage claims at a nil rate per mile.
    This would allow the invoicing team to pick up mileage to charge to clients that is not claimed by operational staff: for example, where operational staff have a vehicle provided by the company.

  8. You should allow current subscription holders the ability to create reports on all of their data. At the moment if you stop employee staff and therefore downgrade your subscription, XERO removes all payroll reports. So when you need to print a report you cannot without changing your subscription to include payroll again, even they you don't need to pay employees. It costs you a 30 day subscription to print one report. This is a big fault and something I can do in MYOB. Please fix this madness.

  9. It would be useful to capture Incoterms on a contact by having a dropdown selection for them. Additionally, if this information can be carried over to the invoice screen, it would be beneficial.

    Hi Amanda, in lieu of having a direct field and selection for this in Xero perhaps an option could be to add this information to the Notes of the contacts record, or attaching as a file to the contacts record.

    Appreciate this doesn't automatically flow through to the invoice.

    We'll start to get a feel of the interest for this feature through your idea, here.

  10. Capture data from PDF bills and automatically populate Bills fields in Xero. Similar to Hubdoc image recognition, but need to be for Bills as standard feature in Xero.

    Workflow is next: Create a New Bill, upload pdf bill file, then click button or toggle "AI auto-fill", boom no need for manual entires. Double check and approve the bill, saved a lot of time on manual entires/bookkeeping.

  11. When a customer payment or supplier payment are in the bank reconciliation, you can only allocate invoices. However if the payment has a credit invoice it would be good to be able to allocate them then, rather than going into the customer and supplier account and allocating. When there are lots of credit invoices this is a very long process.

  13. Can we please have the system stop telling us that there are duplicate bills after one has been voided? Once a bill has been voided, it no longer poses a threat so why does the system still tell us that there are duplicates?

  14. Why is the next bill feature no longer available in bill preview?
    The bill preview is a great feature in awaiting bills, allowing you to view the bill and xero transaction at the same time, before you schedule a bill for payment. There were up and down arrows allowing you to move through all the bill transactions & their respective invoice/s that were awaiting payment.

    However, in the last week it is no longer available. You have to keep clicking in and out of each bill to preview. Its time consuming. Can we please have this feature back?

  15. Most people using accounting software are keyboard proficient. Having to use a mouse to see and click on drop down lists is inefficient. This is particularly bad when applying payments to the new invoicing system. I can see you've updated this so that you can tab across when you're creating a new invoice - please extend this functionality to the payment field. (All we really want is for you to #BringBackClassicInvoicing)

    Hi Amanda, are there any particular fields you're having issues tabbing through in the payments window? We recently released a change so you can now type in dates rather than having to choose from the calendar.

  16. I would like easier access for entering multiple spend money transactions with a preview screen

    I suggest either;

    1) a separate email to send spend money receipts to like bills have; or

    2) when entering spend money transaction, after clicking save and add another, allow the preview pane to be available after attaching a file so you can still see the details of the receipt when entering (just like the preview is there when you enter a spend money from the files section) otherwise you have to go out of spend money and back to files just so you have…

  17. The new modernised GST returns in Xero no longer export the report name in the exported file name. The document only has the client name and date, not the report type anymore. Should say "XXXX Ltd 30 11 2024 GST Return", whereas it currently only says XXXX Ltd 30 11 2024". Inefficient to have to manually add the words "GST Return" for each report produced in Blue Xero when sending multiple documents to clients. Is there a way to get it back? Within the document itself it says the report type, but would be preferred to be included in the…

  18. increase number of lines of transactions visible when reconciling the bank account as currently only 6 lines are visible which requires constant scrolling up and down to find the correct entries, even with filtering by supplier. A customer receipt can be entered with several lines and the lines cannot be filtered to just show receipts, it shows all the invoices outstanding too. As we issue hundreds of invoices, only seeing 6 lines means that it involves a lot of scrolling to find the relevant bank receipt entry and one bank receipt may have been split into several individual line transactions.

  19. Bills are listed as 'duplicate' even tho they are monthly recurring bills so even tho the amounts are the same, the dates are different. Is there any way of these monthly bills not being listed as 'duplicate'. wastes a lot of time checking.

  20. I have set repeating invoices to repeat at the end of every calendar month. This seems to work fine for 30 day months, however, in a 31 day month, most of the invoices automatically redraft on the 30th, and only some on the 31st. The parameters for each recurring invoice template seem to be the same so I can't figure out why this keeps happening. To avoid the extra work to change most of them to the 31st each time, this feature needs to work consistently, and automatically generate draft invoices for the last day of the calendar month, regardless…
