Xero - Backup data file
Under all the new rules and regulations set down by the Tax Practitioners Board, it is a requirement to keep a backup copy of the data file. We do not want to start a new Xero file from a backup - that is not logical. We need the ability to click on a button and run a backup to comply with the new rules. Using another app is also not a solution. It must be built in the the Xero program that we can use as bookkeepers. This is an essential feature if we are to comply and do regular…

Malaysia E-Invoicing - Two columns to show when validated versus viewed
Regarding the Invoice interface on the Sent Column, perhaps can Xero make it into two instead? One is for the Validated E-Invoicing & the other one is for customer. The reason is now, when we send to MyInvoice, every thing has become "viewed" instead. So now I don't know whether my customer did view or not.
I also suggest the MyInvoice under the Sent column, once the e-invoice validated, can it changed to "validated" instead of "viewed"? Like that we do not need to open another tab at the History and Notes to look up for it.
11 votesHi team, we appreciate your feedback here. Very soon we'll be releasing a dashboard for e-invoicing in Malaysia that'll help with your needs here.
It'll highlight the e-invoicing status for each transactions, and show where data is missing, helping to generate, validate and submit consolidated e-invoices. I'll be back to confirm once this is live to you all. Thanks

Projects - Allow as an Add-On for all pricing plans
As a 1-man business I only need limited features, but the Project feature is one of these that feels essential to my line of work. It is only available in the highest pricing plan and is not available as an add-on. This appears to price out small businesses who want this feature. Please consider allowing this as an add-on, even if it isn't to be available in different pricing tiers.
4 votesHey all, unfortunately there's no news to share on this request at the moment.
Please make sure to share this idea with any colleagues that could benefit from this, so they can add their votes and comments too.

New invoicing - When sending show organisation's trading name at top of invoice
The email template has changed which accompanies the invoice to the customer. We have a legal name plus a trading as name which people know us by. Currently the legal name is showing up boldly at the top of the email which it didn't before. We would like the trading name to be in this place so as not to cause confusion to our customers, or have the ability to remove it entirely as it has the logo there displaying the correct name.
209 votesHi community, we really appreciate your feedback on this and hearing why you'd like to be able to change the organisation's name that's shown when sending invoices from Xero.
This is on our teams radar, and is something they may look into longer term however we want to be open that it's not in the current roadmap.
We'll continue to track and keep across the interest from our community, and if there's any news to share we'll update you on this, here.

To be able to send out service and inspection reminders by date
Could we add a feature to enable us to email out service and inspection reminders up to 28 days before it is due.
This could be done by date only.
It would save us having to add another app and potentially another running system to get this feature.5 votesAaah gotcha, thanks for the confirmation and additional feedback on the idea here. A bit of an extension from our existing functionality for Contacts and there may be some CRM solutions that you could explore in the Xero app store atm.
For now we'll track the interest in this from community here.

Files - Suggestion for thumbnail previews in Files Inbox
It would be great to look down the list of files in the Xero Files inbox and see a thumbnail image of what the PDF is, so that non-relevant ones or replicas can be deleted in bulk.
When files are forwarded, often the attachment is loaded to the inbox along with multiple other files which turn out to be logos from the email signature, and it is time-consuming to have to open every file to find out whether it is relevant or not, and delete individually.

Global search - ability to search for amount including comma for thousand separator
This seems like an absolute no-brainer.
When looking for an invoice or payment, I often copy the amount from a remittance or similar, and it is a frustrating waste of time to have to manually remove the comma.
This should be easy to implement, and would make the user experience smoother seamlessly.

New Invoicing - Move Save button to bottom of invoice like classic
Please move the SAVE for the New invoicing to the bottom as per old invoicing. When you have an invoice with 30-50 items and then have to scroll back up to save it adds to the pressure of getting things done.
Or Better still
Leave the old there until you've got it together and your Paid subscribers are happy.
We are seriously looking at moving away from XERO due to all the changes you impose on us without proper UAT. More often than not it creates more work for us and causes more stress we just dont need in an…237 votesHi team, I know it's been some time since we last updated this idea.

Project - Reference field
Add reference field for project.
We do a lot of project work. Our clients will generally have a tender or contract number associated with the project. I need to include this number on all invoices related to the project.It would be great to have an optional reference field for each project that, if not blank, would automatically populate the reference field for every invoice created.

Bank Feed - Chase bank
For Xero to expand their bank feed connections to develop feed that supports Chase bank UK
27 votesHi everyone, just a quick update to let you know that we are aware of this request, and we get that having a direct bank feed for Chase Bank UK would streamline your workflow and make reconciling much easier.
Currently, the best way to get your transactions into Xero is by manually importing your bank statements.
For now, we’ll keep an eye on the engagement and support for this bank feed here, and let you know when we have any updates on this.

Purchase Orders - Posting to General Ledger
The functionality to be able to raise and approve a Purchase Order which, at the point of approval, would create a double entry in the general ledger. Specifically:
• Debit a Work in Progress (WIP) expenses account (to reflect anticipated expenditure),
• Credit a creditors account (to reflect the anticipated liability).
This would allow the PO to reflect a commitment in the accounts, enabling better management of Work In Progress and projected costs before the supplier invoice arrives.
In an ideal world, to be able to allocate the PO to a Xero Project, so that WIP and anticipated costs appear…
12 votesHi Tristan, thanks for sharing such a detailed and well-thought-out suggestion. We appreciate you taking the time to explain the specific accounting impact and how this would improve financial visibility.
We've reviewed your idea for having approved Purchase Orders post to the general ledger and integrate with Xero Projects. This suggestion is now ready to gain support and feedback from other community members.
Along with votes, others can now comment on how having this visibility of committed costs could improve their own project management and financial forecasting in Xero. 🙂

Contacts - Default cursor to search
I'd just like the cursor to already be IN the search field when I open Contacts please.
Thanks12 votesWe understand why this idea is quickly gaining traction. Being able to start typing in the search bar as soon as the contacts page loads would be a small but meaningful improvement.
Right now, the cursor doesn’t land in the search bar by default, so it’s an extra click each time.
This idea's now in the Gaining Support stage. If it’s something that would make a difference to your workflow, adding your vote or comment helps us understand the wider demand—and gives our product team more to work with when prioritising updates.
We’ll post here with any changes or progress.

Invoicing - Calendar run from Monday - Sunday (UK)
ISO 8601, the international standard for date and time formatting (adopted in the UK), defines Monday as the first day of the week. In invoicing Sunday seems to have been adopted recently and I can see from another thread this was deliberate, but this is NOT UK standard and our calendars adopt a Monday start so will confuse all UK users. Maybe adopt a setting where the user can define the setting instead of trying to suit the whole world...
3 votesThanks for your feedback, Sally. We appreciate there may be different preference for this.
You're right this was a brief change that was made in invoicing however in consistency with how calendars appear in other areas of Xero this has been changed back and we also received feedback for calendars to run Sunday - Saturday.
While we will track the interest from others in this here we want to be upfront that we don't have any further plans for changing start dates of this calendar.

New invoicing - Page loading slow
New invoicing...Very slow page load speeds to both open/create a new invoice on the new invoicing platform...and also to add a payment.
Current wait time is 15-20 seconds per page load.
Ive cleared cache and cookies to no avail
I have uploaded some shorts on you tube for you to see the problem.
48 votesAppreciate the short videos and can see what you're saying, Chris - Have you raised a case with our Xero Support team about the slowness in loading?
Actual slowness in the page loading are issues that we'd like to dig into deeper as they aren't occurring for all users so it'd be good to be able to investigate one on one with our Xero Support team who can escalate if needed. Thanks

Repeating Invoices - Ability to bulk update repeating invoices
Repeating Invoices - Ability to bulk update repeating invoices.
We provide a subscription service which some of the 470+ customers have been using for years.
At times we make changes to T&Cs, the wording, rates, payment services etc. and it would be extremely times shaving if we could do bulk changes i.e. change the Item, Due Date, Reference, Payment Services etc, without having to go into each repeating invoice individually.

NZ Payroll - Add fixed allowance capability to timesheets
Currently, employees cannot add allowances to their timesheet if they are setup as fixed amounts (i.e - nightshift allowance where an employee works at night)
An employee should have the capability of adding the allowances they are entitled to where appropriate. The approver would then review before approving.

Navigation - Add Tracking Category back to main menu
Please add Tracking Categories back to the main menu, so it can be accessed with one click instead of having to navigate through to settings. Under accounting tools would be fine. Thank you
4 votesThanks for raising your feedback with us here. It's really good to understand what's important to help our customers working in Xero.
If possible it'd be great to get more detail as to why you're often needing to access the Tracking Settings? In many places you'll find that you can add new tracking options for a category while on the go and entering transactions in your org, so would appreciate deeper understandings of your business flows here.

Permissions - Give Invoice Only users access to Send/Print for approved invoices
Invoice Only User SHOULD have access to "send and print" feature once the Purchase Order were approved. To address this concern, a user should have an access level of Invoice Only + Purchases, however, changing the permission to this level, the inputs made by other users, which might be confidential and unnecessarily to be seen by others, are compromised. I would like to request to add this feature (send and print) for the Invoice Only users.
17 votesWe appreciate you taking the time to share and support this idea. We can see that this idea is already gaining traction amongst the community. Giving Invoice Only users the ability to send or print approved invoices has the potential to simplify your workflow and make day-to-day tasks more efficient.
Enabling this functionality would allow the same users who create and approve invoices to also send or print them, reducing handovers and helping your business operate more smoothly. It’s a great example of how a small change can lead to better team autonomy.
Currently, this action is available to users with Standard, Advisor, or Invoice Only – Approve & Pay roles. Expanding this to other Invoice Only roles, such as Draft, Sales, or Purchases could make Xero even more flexible for teams with clearly defined responsibilities.
We’ve moved this idea into the Gaining Support stage. It’s now open for voting…
