  2. The Pay Now option is not visible on the online page of an invoice when the currency of the invoice does not match the organisation's default currency. This is especially annoying when Payment Services such as Stripe are set-up as they can easily process multiple currencies.

    Moreover, as it is not (or poorly) documented that Payment Services are not usable when using a foreign currency, it just seems to be a bug. I contacted support who responded with the following:

    "The Pay Now button on an invoice only shows if the currency of the invoice or payment account is the…

  3. When clients are activating new BNZ Direct Bank feeds for new Bank a/cs from Xero, many are getting caught out accidently adding into Xero other BNZ bank a/cs listed on BNZ online because they are not specifying the don't connect option for other bank a/cs that are not related to their business. If they don't select any option for other listed bank a/cs, these Bank a/cs get auto set up with a bank feed in the Xero they are currently logged into.

    It's a pain to remove unwanted bank a/cs from Xero especially if they have started importing transactions or…

  4. Many companies operate based on accrual and not cash. It should be possible to show accrual basis in all reports, most specifically the bank reconciliation report.

  5. When you estimate an expense in Projects so that you can track that expense against what you budgeted for it, and tell Projects that you'll be on-charging at a particular rate, Projects tracks the progress of expenses incurred against the revenue expected. It should be tracking the progress of actual expenses against the estimated cost of that expense.

    In the screenshot I've attached, you can see that the expected total cost of the expense I'm tracking is $202,702.50 and I have so far used $140,257.52 of that. It should show that there is $62,444.98 remaining in the budget for this…

  6. Dates should default to date format when exporting the VAT return to excel.

    Currently when exporting the VAT return to excel that dates automatically default to either text or general format. This means you can't filter the dates by oldest to newest as the filter selection defaults to A-Z.

    Changing the date to date format via format cells does not fix the issue. The only way I have found is to manually update the dates using the =DATEVALUE(x) formula and paste these new values over the old ones. This can be very tedious when working with a lot of late…

  7. Xero should provide a way to export the reconciliation list do it offline in excel and them import it back.

    Reason for that is, for people like me that spend long hours in flights (more than 60 hours a month) or people that for some reason will be in an offline environment, can use that time to work on the reconciliation part.

  10. VAT 126 - small local authorities can reclaim all VAT. To do so they need to submit a 126 schedule, which is not currently available within Xero. The problem is that the supplier's VAT number cannot be included in transaction reports.
    The ability to produce the VAT 126 schedule would make Xero a very good option for the many parish and small town councils.

  12. We would like to be able to capture non-financial (eg head count) and statistical numbers (eg Order Book) in Xero and add it into Xero reports alongside the existing financial information for management reporting
    Currently it seems that accounts that are added automatically appear in the Chart Of Accounts.
    Could another Account Type be created that allows memo accounts to be created outside the CoA?

  13. The blue reconciled button togeher with the green tick suggests that all is correct. Yet, this amount has no process of being checked against the bank statement or actual bank balance (noting here that issues can arise from time to time with datafeeds). All that has happened is that all transactions within the Xero system have been allocated/matched.

    Could the term currenlty used as 'Reconciled', be relabelled to 'Allocated'?

    Could the words around 'check the bank statement' be moved/highlighted/enlarged, so that it is clear that merely allocating all transactions does not mean the bank account is reconciled?

  15. Currently the Item Summary report when grouped by Sales Account, groups by the sales account listed on the individual inventory items. If like us, you sell inventory across different revenue accounts i.e. product lines, then it does become a bit frustrating not being able to group the sales of inventory based on the revenue account the transaction was recorded against.

    The Inventory Item Details report does use the transaction account when grouping in contrast to the summary report which feels odd.

  16. Hi! I like the option to 'bookmark' frequently used reports using the star icon. However, I often click on the star of a report in my Favourites section by mistake, which immediately removes it from that section. It would be great to have a 'undo' option pop up, so you don't have to manually search for the report and add it back in again.

  17. We are a plant hire business and have recently started using Xero Projects to measure profitability by project/vehicle. We raise a significant number of sales invoices every day. This can only be done manually so as to match Purchase Order to Delivery Note and other relevant backing documentation.

    The project allocation selection is the final entry item, which doesn't run with the order the backing information is reviewed. It would be a great timesaver if the input boxes on the sales invoice creation screen could be moved around.

    The above update would enhance our efficiency.

  19. Please add Recap Transaction found in MYOB.
    The feature allows you to see which accounts will be affected (debited or credited) by a transaction you're about to enter. Seeing what effect a particular transaction will have on the accounts allows one to know the outcome of transactions with accuracy. This is a powerful feature that can prevent incorrect entry of all kinds of transactions. See attached screenshot from MYOB

    Appreciate not the exact feature you're looking for here and will be good to get a sense of the interest of this here. In the meantime, I wanted to make sure you can find this information once reconciled. Those with the Standard or Adviser roles can run the Journal report to view recent impacts to accounts and the user that made each change. 

  20. On the new invoicing screen - when adding payment. Can the box run horizontally as opposed to vertically then we will be able to use the tab function to move between boxes?
    Also I think reference is an essential box and needs to visible here (and you don't have to click + to get it) when entering a payment, but also on the bank reconciliations screen where you have to "Add details" for that box to appear.
    All we want is efficient workflow.

    Hi Audrey, appreciate your feedback however I do want to confirm that in it's current form you are able to tab between the fields of the Payment window. If you'd like to enter something in a field press enter and this will open the selection, then tab to get to the next option. This includes reference - once highlighted press enter and this'll open the reference field for you to enter detail
